Couple days ago I had a good time shooting Great Blue Herons in Flight bringing nesting material at Wako.
I considered cloning the tip of the branch on the right side of the frame, so the branch did not touched the end of the frame, but I was not sure...

Raul, Super capture! I would clone the end a bit. Bob
Raúl, I'd also clone the branch so it doesn't touch the edge, what I see is that the focus is on the bird's left wing, so you might want to give the head a little more USM. Still, very nice capture with great light, detail and BG. Congratulatinos!
Impressive framing considering it is full-frame! Tough exposure with resulting deep black shadow on the underwings (especially far wing). As posted the image could stand more sharpening. If your concern is a resulting too short stick you could alternatively add some canvas instead.
Agree with suggestions and might consider going for more of a pano to accentuate the forward speed !!!
