I totally agree with you, Rosalie. Did you use a 70-300mm lens here? The reason why I ask is that 300mm will have a huge impact on the DOF as well.

What a gorgeous shot! And such lovely backlighting, making those whiskers glow. Only suggestion from me would be to use a smaller aperture if possible (maybe f8) next time, to get both animals in pin-sharp focus. (I tend to make the same mistake, especially if I shoot in shutter priority, which is why I mention it.) But I know with wildlife, and especially such a rare sighting, things can change quickly so you need to get your shots as best you can in the moment 🙂
