I think you should have upped the ISO and decreased the aperture. Remembering the closer you are to a subject, the shorter the depth of field for any given F stop. It seems critcal focus was more toward the back of the bird, and a greater DOF would have allowed the entire bird to be in sharp focus. I'm always glad to see someone using manual exposure, it implys a good understanding of photographic principles. regards~Bill
