while I like the ‘boka’ a small aperture creates – I think you may have limited to focus plane to where it was hard to get the eye in focus – also for birds with mostly dark tones, but with some white it is very hard to not blow out the whites – suggest you try this one again with a fstop in the f 8 range, and adjust your exposure to -.7 – 1, keep it up, you have a nack for bird shots!
