Missed focus, but still fairly pleased with it

This is a shot taken yesterday morning that I missed the point of focus (on the bird), I was manually focusing, but I'm still quiet pleased with it.

This is one of those images that is either a bit too early or too late.
Good try.

Thanks Samsen

You can see that the top of the plant is in focus.
It happens to me ALL THE TIME.
It still looks nice and you'll get it next time.

Thanks Jhayesvw. It can be quiet challenging for me to get them in focus (especially in poor light), but it's always worth a try. Now, if only I could figure out a way of slowing them down.

I like it.

Still recognisable as a Linnet all the same :0)

Thanks Fotoworks and Kakapokid.
