I had to look it up as I wasn't sure!

Did you focus in auto or manual? It is a nice shot, just need a bit of more detail of the actual subject I think.

As I'd had the camera about 5 minutes, it was auto focus. Quite difficult to focus generally when you're balancing on a rock and photographing something that's about to fly off on a windy tree!

I actually really like the fact that it's not all in focus. The very shallow DOF and the focussing along the top edge of the wing is great.
