Oops. My budget is around the $500 mark, sub-$700 if possible. That said, it would end up being the most expensive lens I have, as these are the others I have:

Canon EF-S 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM
Canon EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS

I usually shoot landscapes as part of my travels and had been using my 10-18 more. This one was shot at 10mm, f/7.1, 1.3s, ISO100


However, I've recently starting using my standard zoom lens more to capture subjects from farther away. This was one example where I hit my 135mm cap, taken on my last trip before the pandemic hit:
135mm, f/5.6, 1/1250, ISO100


And thanks for the recommendations! Sigma 150-600 sounds ideal, and I see it for $819 on the outlet store. It's a bit of a stretch of the budget, but I do like that it goes up to 600mm.
Save a little more and Spend the extra money on the lens. The difference is about the price of 1 tire! 😀

Be aware that they are both heavy lens in the range of 7 pounds.A tripod is recommended for for steady shots, low light and long exposures
