Default Got dinner!

I went to Moody Garden at Galveston, TX. The new rain forest pyramid has been opened. It was hot and humid (more than outside) - but I got this picture of a bird that got dinner - what ever that is?

Need advice/input on:
- Is it a big problem with the overexposure (above the birds head).
- Is the DoF ok?
- What's for dinner?

EXIF: ISO 400, 1/60 s, 6.3F, 100mm, EOS 60D, Sigma 70-300mm, speedlite 430EX II.

Hi, about the overexposure, yeah it is a bit of a problem
First thing I spotted was that highlight on birds head, and it is even more prominent due to another highlighted spot in upper right corner....I would try to crop that and maybe try to do some work in pp...if you know how, or maybe someone more experienced than me could tell you how however it is a cute picture

While there is a bright spot on the birds head, I would not call this photo overexposed. That spot should be easy to fix in post processing.

DOF is nice and I think dinner is a mouse.
