I wish I knew how to use all the features on my camera. I love the blurred background pictures and vivid colours others in Project 365 have been taking. This is my attempt.
Do you use your camera in manual mode at all? To get the shallow depth-of-field (the blur) you need to have a low aperture setting.
As for colour, there's something to be said for a Photoshop bump... ;) I shoot in RAW which tends to be a little on the flat side, so a little post-processing goes a long way.
ditto to what the first 2 commenters said. Low aperture for the blur and PS for the colour boost. We have the same animals, I do a head count on them once a week and get a bit annoyed when any are missing. hah

post-processing / colour boost actions can do a lot for the latter...

I think you did a great job on this.
