I took this about two years ago with my 600 wide open at Nisqually national wildlife refuge. This Towhee was on the guardrail of the boardwalk.

Excellent image for seeing the actual "total" DOF here, David. Most times we see wildlife photos in focus, but have little else to determine the actual challenge of meeting the clarity coverage of the subject overall. However, this scene provides that gage or view by looking at the blur patterns on the wall both FG & BG of the Towhee. Nicely done......

The small dof does a fine job of isolating the Towhee and disguising the guardrail, David. The oof colors on the rail are a good addition.
