I like the hovering pose and overall sharpness Sure wish the bird had a different foreground, the stalks are competing for attention and my eyes keeping from the bird to the grasses !!! Tempted to suggest cropping all the light areas at the bottom !!! Would make the bird larger in frame and stand out better !!!

oOvely sharpness on the bird. I agree with Alfred on the foreground, pity the bird wasn't slightly higher:-)

I like the hovering pose and the birds concentration. The light angle coming from the right and somewhat behind the bird has resulted in shadowing that obscures detail.
