it looks like you over sharpened. I think a soft picture is better than one that looks digital due to over sharpening.

I like what you captured here but the black outline of the bird bothers me.

the thick black line surrounding the bird is a bummer.

Feels, to me, like you pushed the subject a bit too much.

Great colors. The whites are well exposed. I think it is a little oversharp. The mage quality seems a little noisy in the foreground and background.
