I found this bag a few years ago in an office supply store. It has been perfect for birding. I can carry my compact camera, some snacks, a notebook and a small field guide. It has a big easy-to-use zipper and an outside pocket. I also have a neoprene water bottle carrier with a belt loop that I put on this bag's shoulder strap.

I have had a number of hikers and birders ask me about it when they see me with it. I recently found it on Amazon and thought I would pass the link on.
I have seen a number of field bags online and even in stores. But, this one works very well for me.
The only thing I wanted for this bag was a smaller inner pocket. I solved that by using one of these pouches:

These pouches are perfect for an extra pen, batteries or other smaller items. The clip attaches to the rings on the bag for the shoulder strap so I don't accidentally lose it. 
Here is a link for the type of water bottle carrier I have. I think you can pick one up at Walmart for less. This carrier is also just the right size for sunglasses.
