Excellent Kingfsher image with indeed a very smooth BG and lovely perch.
I might be tempted to selectively sharpen the head of the fish just a little more.
Also feel cropping a bit of the bottom and adding just a bit of canvas at the top and some 0.2 CCW rotation might really improve this composition.
I like the crop, I might tone down the fish a bit, but BG, pose, compo, and light look great to me! I am thinking he could share his catch with Haim Ziv's Kingfisher ;) Congratulations! Almost forget, the better perch I ve seen so far for a King ficher!
