I'd suggest to set f5.6 or f/6.3 and higher ISO, which would lead to faster shutter speed.
Agreed.
f/5.6 to f/6.3 is plenty.
With a stationary subject like a perched Cormorant, I would still like to strive for a shutter speed that matches the effective focal length of the camera. If the exif is correct, 1/1000s would have been easy to achieve without any introduction of noise.
Also important to note that some AF systems struggle after f/8.

Great cormorants looking for a hand out from fishermen cleaning fish are an easy target
Thanks! Likewise on the Cormorants. They are very misunderstood in the Pacific Northwest. Unfairly blamed for the decrease in the salmon population when a large Army Corps of Engineer managed dam is the culprit.
