I like this shot, elegant and simple. I might tone down grass, it might distract from the main subject which is beautiful.
I love gray on blue, maybe trim the yard some too if your ethics will allow (mine do) - well done.

Like the comp, nice HA. Would trim from the bottom and sharpen a bit more

I like the composition and the pose, the bird has good head angle and eye contact. I'd remove the background noise and sharpen a little bit.
Nate,
Beautiful image.
The bill looks a little hot and I agree on trimming the grass a little.
Nice bg and I like the grass with the bird. It appears the focus is more on the body feathers rather than the head and eye, which seem a bit out of focus.
cool compo , nice HA and BG , Focus seems to be on feather , If mine I may crop little bit from bottom
