EOS Rebel T6 What lenses or lens should I get for landscape, nature, and bird photography?

I have the Canon Eos Rebel T6 with the 18-55mm lens and 75-300mm lens. I’ve had the camera for years and I’ve been wanting to get new lenses.

I enjoy landscape photography and nature. I’m wanting to find a macro lens and a lens for capturing birds in the woods. Any recommendations? I’ve been looking but I thought I’d ask.

lefler,

Do you have a budget in mind, or some idea of how much you have to spend?

For macro, find a used ef-s 60mm. 
For telephoto find a Tamron or sigma 150 - 600.

I recommend upgrading the camera, which is at or near he end of its service life with Canon.  I recommend the R100 or the R50.  Both are a performance upgrade, especially the R50.

https://www.usa.canon.com/shop/p/eos-r50?color=Black&type=New  Canon R50 (new)

You will need the EF/RF mount adapter to use your current lenses.

Canon also has an online Refurbished Store.  Same gear, fully tested. Full warranty.

Both bodies are currently in stock as body only or as body w/lens kits.  Both bodies need the mount adapter to use your current lenses.  My suggestion is sell your current gear and upgrade to an R Series body with more advanced auto focus systems.
