Highlights too blown out for my taste. I also like a bit more contract. Soft focus doesn't have to mean loss of contrast. In this case some extra contrast would probably help bring out the colors more.
1st it is too tightly cropped.
I know it is tough expose due to the backlight, but there are many ways to post process better to get a much better image. This current version has lost it's contrast & is too overexposed. Details on the bird are lost.
You can always PM me & I could help.
