Hi, image is way to small to allow serious critique. You can upload it at 1024 pixels on the longest size which will be much better....

Hello Manuel. Nice to see you posting here again. Please keep sharing your photos of those amazing Mexican birds with us.

As we all know there aren't too many photos of this bird. It is nice and sharp, well exposed; good choice to get low since it was on the ground. Eye us pretty good considering the flash and the really big eyes.
The little dirt in the upper right corner and the stick next to the bird aren't that noticeable, since they colors are very similar to the sand ground, however, if you wish and goes with your ethics they can easily be removed.

Thanks for the week of birding. It was an amazing experience with many things to learn about our beautiful Mexico and it's birds.:-)
