Excellent landing pose, well exposed, clouds in bg help provide more sense of depth. I might experiment with cropping in a bit from the right to reduce the impact of the tree over the bird. Personal taste really.

Yes to the crop suggestion. Wing position and IQ is outstanding.
Thank you Randy and Joe for viewing and commenting. Here is what I came up guided by your suggested crop,

I think the repost has more impact. The bird clearly becomes the dominant visual component in the tighter crop, which is good in my opinion.I would however, try a version just slightly less tight, go back about 25% of the change you made. Really becomes personal taste.
Cheers
