I like the wide crop and setting and would desaturate the greens a few points. The bird itself could go a bit sharper for my taste.

Axel, here's a repost with green desat and selective sharpening on the bird...
However, 1/125 is slow for optimum sharpness on such a skittish bird, i only got 2 shots before he left, so could not crank up iso for faster ss too....

The repost looks better, I would go even further in desaturating the green channel.

The greens look more realistic in this last repost.
