I understand you were trying to include the bird in the photograph but this picture would have been much better if the person walking the dog had been much more to the right of the frame so it would be like she's entering the frame.
The guy in the yellow jacket is also quite a distraction and if you would have managed to have exclude him from the picture (by taking it earlier or waiting for the next person walking a dog) it would be quite an improvement.
In addition I sorta think that high-contrast B&W would suit this picture much better than color.
But I do like the pier and the footsteps in the sand in the foreground ...
Looks like the Santa Monica pier - is it? I haven't been there in 15 years...
Nice use of thirds in your composition. Well balanced exposure. Might have been a tad stronger with the people not so far out from the camera. 7
