I see the donut shaped berries, but to me, the branch looks that way more 
because it's bark seems to be light-dark-light-dark patches.  The in-focus bird 
is amazingly sharp and smooth at the same time, even when viewed at 200% size. 

Could the 1.4x extender that was apparently used impart some of that donut 
effect, or, not likely?  I'd like to see a staright 300mm shot with no 
extender.
