A nice scene.
The title and composition suggest that the bird should be the focal point, but the bird is lacking detail due to overexposure, lack of focus, or both. I'll bet that you framed the picture and took it, which resulted in the camera metering for the darker fountain, instead of the light bird. If your camera can be made to lock the exposure and focus then you should meter for the bird and then compose the photo. Else, you could increase Depth of Field to get the bird AND the fountain in focus, but don't go too far or else you'll bring in the column or the ground, which would be a problem, in my mind. I do like the border.

good idea, bird appears a little blown out - too much post processing? meets challenge and water is good

Seems overly processed.

So cute. If the pillar and floor weren't so beige and mid tone, this would be a great candidate for black and white. I wish the bird were better focused. It's really cute.
