Hi Chris,
I like the composition, detail, background and the POV.

Chris,

This is awesome pose and shot. Beautiful light here.
I prefer the smaller version of bird in frame OR in other way more room around.

toning down of the dark oof patches on middle left would be good.

Great IQ

Thanks everyone it's much appreciated.
Mital is this what you had in mind, I added some canvas and removed the dark patches.
