WOW this is terrific! I do hope we have a bird challenge soon, there are so many cool bird shots on the site already I'm sure it would be a fun one to vote on. Love the close crop.

I say be proud of the shot! Don't fall into the trap of having to have others aproval. If you think it's great then it is! If you know it's lacking something then by all means ask for advice but if you're feeling good about it, accept that it's good! EVERY photo could be changed in some way to meet anothers preferences. Create what YOU enjoy and like the look/feel of. Don't mean to sound preachy but I've just truely figured this out for myself and I feel much better about my photography and am enjoying it more again.
Keep enjoying what you're doing. :)
ps no offence to those who have posted advice.
