European Bee-Eater Portrait

The beautiful European Bee-Eater, this time with an interesting, but blurred background. This really highlights its amazing colors.

What do I like about this photo? The Bee-Eater is sharp and colorful, with the background being blurred and of different colors. I used an open aperture to achieve a shallow depth of field for this effect. As a result, the Bee-Eater really stands out. The amount of detail is very good (try zooming in).

What would I want to improve? I would have loved to get rid of the branches on the right that hide the tail a bit.
