I tried this with f11, the first was with f4 & 2nd was with f8. ISO kept same 400 for all 3 images. Experts can provide a comparison of the 3 images of the same bird.

The depth of field is more. Just check the leaf infront in this image. It is also in focus, as compared to the image with f8 aperture. You need to press the depth of field preview button to see the impact of aperture on depth of field.

Cheers,

Lovely details and sharpness. Agree with Sabyasachi. Since the light was good, you could use f11, it has enhanced the details and the composition. Thanks for sharing.

Another beauty, Praveen! Narrower DoF has added to the details but has reduced the feel of it a bit. I liked f/8 version better. You can burn the highlights in the front leaves to enhance the image further. Among both, the horizontal compo is looking more impressive with front leaves providing the balance.
