Peter,
it's the Panasonic G1/GH1 have a look at this link and scroll half way down:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/cameras/panasonic-g1.shtml
It shows a 90- 400mm equiv FL lens that is quite compact, admittedly
nowhere near as compact as the super zoom compacts, it has smaller
lenses tan previous DSLRs as it is a 2x crop factor sensor.
There's also this:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/cameras/gf1.shtml which
takes the same lenses.

Which model is that, Chris? If a camera has a DSLR sized sensor, won't it need
to have a DSLR sized lens? For bird photography the lens is so big that the
body size is almost irrelevant.

David,
any of the big name (Nikon, Canon, Panasonic, Sony) super zoom compacts will do
a good job for you for that sort of work, Panasonic have just released a new
type of camera which is sort of hybrid between a DSLR and the compact styles,
but it does attract DSLR level prices and has better Autofocus and low light
performance due to a DSLR size sensor, but in a compact size body.
