Well caught and a rather tricky image to process I would guess. The reeds of course are very contrasted, maybe easier said than done but I would attempt to make them less dominant in the image. I may be doing you an injustice because I have now downloaded to PS and there was no Color Profile assigned, when I made it sRGB the image looked a little more balanced.
Such a fun image. Very sharp, and a very "chrome-like" water surface around the grebe. The BG is what it is (very prominent), but on a positive note it gives us a good sense of habitat. Was the throat burned? It looks greyed-out.
