thajoker, Welcome

He's watching you, too! If it needs anything, maybe crop out top and right side, where there are distractions adding nothing to the photos. Great light striking wings, beak and tail raise this above average.

Ooooo that must have been a hard shot to catch, I like it, I would crop the right side myself as well, and to keep the aspect ratio slightly of the top too.

personally i prefer the dead space to be in front of subjects... it gives them some where to go... and the focus could be improved.. other than that its excellent... i know how hard this is ... Give ya self a pat on the back
