I like the head angle and BG and could also see it as vertical crop. I don't know how much of a crop this is and how you sharpened it but the texture of the plumage looks unusual on my monitor.
I agree with Axel, the whites almost look painted on.
Agree with the above comments - over sharpened perhaps??
