Wonderful image for all the reasons mentioned! I wonder if you considered eliminating the dead, horizontal, long limb in the background immediately to the right of the bird.

As much as I despise these birds (kills my catfish in pond). I have imaged them a lot. Great shot! Nominated for feature by Karen. Congrats.

Wonderful capture. Great composition, color, and the perfect amount of depth of field. For an image this good, it might be worth the effort to play with it a little in PhotoShop. As mentioned above, you could extend the background and clone out the branch. Plenty of good online guidance available on those techniques, which are pretty easy to do once you learn them.
