This one was taken in 2007 with my old 300D. The settings were -
Canon 300D with EF 75-300 F4-5.6 IS
1/640 sec 300mm F/5.6 ISO 200 Exp Bias +0.66
Would like to get feedback on the composition and if anything else I could have done better.

I like the eye contact and head angle and would have preferred more space at the top and more at the bottom for the legs and 'virtual feet'. A lower angle might have been good, too. I could see this as a vertical crop, too.
Light, head angle and eye contact are great. I agree with Axel re more room and possible vertical composition. As it stands I would crop from the right to accentuate the diagonal line of the bill. Also cleaned up the "flyaway hair" and specular highlights on the breast.

Axel, Tony, thanks for the feedback. Here is repost with the suggestions...

That's a step in the right direction toward including the whole bird. I would prefer even more at the bottom if you have the legs (even if they are virtual legs in the water) and a little less above. Something has happened to the colour saturation (and ?contrast) in this image - I prefer the pose and colour in the original.

I agree with Tony, are the different colors due to the fact that this is a different image of this bird?
Here is another repost... this time with virtual legs on the original post. Thanks for the suggestions...
