This photo was taken at safari park, Do you think that I need to stamp the background or please give me advice about this pic. I did a little sharpen on the bird.

Comments and Critiques are welcome...

Very nice moment captured, love the full wing spread, the intensive eye and how you include the mouse as well. I wouldn't do anything about the background here. However I would tried to town down the highlight, especially on the wings and the mouse, seem like red channel is blown here (might be from jpeg conversion), but you might be able to recovery these in RAW.

Thanks for your tip Thanaboon.. Do you think that the background too light?

[Thanaboon Jearkjirm]

The background is not too light, at least for me.

nice landing, wish this image was taken in natural settings, not much you can do with a brick wall BG and asphalt. it also appear to be a big crop and somewhat lacking in details. TFS
