Took this photo of a White Fronted Bee Eater while on the Zambezi River. Nikon D 500 and 80-400 lens at 1/2500, f/11 and ISO 900. Cropped to about 50% of original. Richard

An excellent shot of the Bee Eater itself, Richard.  I do wish it had chosen a more photogenic perch, though you did a good job with the dof to avoid having that forward branch become oof and really distracting.  Given the shape of the perch and the angle of the bird, you might try cropping from the left to the end of the perch to see how you like that composition.
