Great timing on the photo. I bet he's happy to have that big of a meal. I do wish the face of the bird was a bit sharper.

I'm craving a closer look at him with less of the trunk of the tree, although that hole certainly indicates a possible nest inside (?)

Lovely scene with nice depth to it. Nice processing too.

Obvious use of a tripod, or any other long-term stabilization tool (1-10 *is not the score of the shot though*): 10
Something seems a tad bit off with the photo. It's almost like your tripod encountered a very slight bump. Some of the stationary objects have that ever-so-slight nervousness in them - as if your tripod got bumped.

Very cool scene, especially with the dead logs that are seemingly making their way down the river. One thing that I notice probably because I'm extra sensitive to it is possible chromatic aberration in the tops of the trees (against the sky).

Obvious tripod use: High.

Great scene, spoiled just a little IMO by the processing. But that's just personal preference. Others will probably love it. Good luck.

This is very clear! Sorta wish all of them were in the frame completely though.
