I'm going to be brutally honest, Ryan, please don't take it wrong. There isn't an interesting subject in this composition, nothing to really draw my eye anywhere. The conversion to monochrome helps a bit, but this needs some sort of focal point to anchor the overall capture. You have much better efforts in your portfolio.

Wow, I'm sorry you ended with 0 comments during voting.

I might have pulled back from this subject a bit, and lined it up on the rule of thirds. The image looks a touch noisy, probably due to a long zoom and the 200 ISO. Run it through Neat Image, Noise Ninja or similar noise reduction software. The lighting was a challenge for you, since it looks like it may have been overcast...if you played with the levels, you might have been able to bring some contrast in to the composition.

It looks a tad "soft" to my eye. Have you put it through Unsharp Mask yet?

Very nice, but B&W is an odd choice for a wildlife image (IMHO). Might also benefit from an Unsharp Mask pass.

Great shot, should have scored much higher. What's it got to do with "Christ Jesus", though?
