Giova:

Your bird is sharp and well exposed, with perhaps just a few areas with minor loss of details on the whites ( shoulders)

Nice wing position.

The background is interesting. The arching branches do for a frame of sorts for the bird. The bill would show a bit better if not against the dense thicket of branches however.

You might try toning down the luminosity of those branches a bit to try and get a bit better separation between them and bill.

Is this a spoonbill? It really looks like a cross between our roseate spoonbill and ibis ( which are related birds to begin with)

Cheers

Ditto Randy. I like the wing position too, but I normally prefer an upstroke to prevent the body from being obstructed. If this is not already cropped I may take some off the left and bottom to a) improve the comp a bit and b) make the bird a little bigger in the frame.
