Hi Cotter,
Without a shadow of a doubt, i'd recommend the Canon 100mm f2.8 USM, the one I used here.
This lens is razor sharp and has gorgeous bokeh on it (not evident on this shot but others I have shown in my gallery do show this). At 100mm it is a good length for getting small nature shots without having to get so close you scare them away, There is of course the 150mm version but that is at least 3 times the price and I couldn't warrant that much being spent when this lens is optically so fantastic. Many people have reviewed this lens and said the only thing that stops this being an L series is the plastic lens body. If it were metal it would be L series as the optics are certainly equal in quality.
Cheers,
Rob
