Not the bird, but the spider! I've included a 100% crop below so you can see the spider looking back at you. One bird, three eyes staring you down. Not bad. :D
I was shooting these guys today as they flew on to the perch, so the technical details are commiserate with that. I think tomorrow I'll try some custom functions so I can quickly switch from "bird in flight" mode to "bird on branch" mode.
This is a 50% crop.
1/3200 sec, f/6.3, ISO 1250, 7D, 500mm, manual everything.
