Canon EF 1.4x II Extender

I ordered a Canon EF 1.4x II Extender today from B&H. I lose 1 F-stop of light on the extender, and I'm not clear if my autofocus will work on all (or any) of my autofocus points.

I'm trying to improve my shots of the hawks and owls and this seems like something worth investigating. It may or may not improve my images, but I felt like checking it out, anyway.

Of course, I'd like to get the Canon EF 800mm f/5.6L IS USM Super Telephoto Lens, but I don't have the cash right now. So we'll see how this works, anyway. If it sucks, I'll sell it.
