Simplify & Flood.
Very nice! I love the painterly vegetation on the right. I'd be tempted to look at a slight increase in exposure, maybe also with a tweak of contrast.
Mitch, this osprey was good to you! A great pose with those outstretched legs & talons. The blurred wing tips work nicely with the blurred vegetation. Diane has some good suggestions.
Nice work. I like the effect of Simplify and how the bird fills the frame. Lovely colors. I don't know anything about Ospreys, but that long wing on the left bothers me.
Personally I don't like this one as much as the other one you posted, Mitch. I really like the pose, but I would add more room to the left if you have it so that the wing isn't cut off. I also might crop out the reflection making it more of a pano crop.
