Well done on catching this behavior and the catch. You had muted light which really helped. You have about a 10 pt magenta color cast which is easily remedied with a color balance layer, +10 on the greens away from the magenta. I would also take a sliver off of the bottom to remove the cloudy portion in the bottom right of the frame.

I agree with Marina regarding the color and the comp, but let me just add that I like the even light which prevented shadows and also the background. Bird is nice and sharp as well.

nice light and pose, agree with removing magenta cast
