Please be sure to post your camera , lens and exposure details, it really helps with our critiques.
Very colorful bird with nice display of far wing. I wish he was banked a bit more towards us so the near wing wasn't pointing right at us. Feet look good.
He is angling a bit away from us, and on my monitor there is a noticeable sharpening halo, esp. noticeable along the back edge of the upright wing.

Background is nice, and I like that he is just clear of it.

Cheers

Great capture. Love the BG and the way the bird has just cleared the bottom. As Rany said just a little over sharpened. Try lightening up the body in shadow that might help make it stand out a bit more.

Spectacular and sharp. Though I would have preferred the full downstroke and the bird flying slighty towards you rather than slightly away the view of the far wing is amazing as it the bird. As above, gear and techs should be listed :D Welcome. Where was the photograph made?
