Default Finally Captured one of the little B@5t@rds, Now wich crop?

Finally caught a Tree Swallow in Flight; these suckers are FAST!

When I looked at the original capture I saw that I also caught a pretty nice reflection of him. When editing I feel like trying to include the reflection detracts from the subject itself.
What's your take?

Tree Swallow 2

Camera: Nikon D3
Exposure: 0.001 sec (1/2000)
Aperture: f/8.0

I agree with your take, I definitely like the second crop. I also like it because zoom factor and more area to the left for the Swallow to fly.
