I'm afraid this looks to be a severe crop. Very grainy and not a lot of detail in this view. This same scene with a sharper, more detailed image would get a nice vote from me. Sorry.
Not quite to the same level of expertise as some of the other avian images in this challenge, the image is technically flawed due to a difficult lighting situation leading to rather flat and dull coloring in addition to the soft focus which is ineffective. The distance involved leads to lack of detail which does not help the image at all. A good effort that might have been improved with a little more patience waiting for a different angle and lighting.
