Tony Northrup raves about the Canon 400mm F5.6 combined with a teleconverter and the APSc 7DII body for nature, the 400mm is compact, not heavy and is sharper than the zooms, used with a 1.4 converter that gives you 640mm + 1.4 converter 896mm equivalent.
The lens is very solid and can be found S/H for $1,000 or less!
The 7DII shoots at 10Fps and has a pro level AF.
The whole caboodle is about as "light and compact as you can get" for birding and nature.
Here's a link to his comparison video:
