What a pretty bird! Some sort of kingfisher? I'd crop tighter on the right to keep the bird from being so centered.

Is this a variety of kingfisher? I know how hard these are to capture so well done :)

I like the color of that bird, :) seems to be a abit out of focus though. maybe try a deeper DoF so it doesn't need to be as exact. I like how you got him eating too.
