“The best camera to have is the one that’s with you all the time,"
An iphone or similar smartphone with lots of pixels (that's the little dots making up the picture).
Sometimes the so-called zoom is not increasing the pixels but simply cropping the picture which you can do later.
What you need is to walk closer to the subject. A bit difficult today - i was photographing a fox outdoors and did not want to move close because that would probably most likely make it run away or if it had nowhere to run and was cornered it might attack me and even if I weren't hurt it might make me drop my camera.
Instead of rushing to your bag or bedroom it would be handy to keep a second proper camera set up on a tripod or table near the window of your garden. (But not visible to burglars nor near a window you or others are likely to leave open).
In my UK garden I have seen lots of birds, fast-moving squirrels as well as the fox. In Singapore you sometimes see snakes (which you want to photograph from a distance - but I suppose it would be handy to have a photo of what killed you if you go too close - joke). In flats you get birds perched on balconies. In condos (Singaporeans use the word condo for a building with more facilities such as landscaped gardens around swimming pools and water features) even more opportunities, including people walking dogs.
