Lovely flight pose. Colors look a bit over saturated, I would adjust the saturation slider in post processing. Also
the image looks a bit over sharpened with a presence of a halo, would also pull back on the sharpening and
apply selectively.

A great shot. A bit too tight in the frame for my taste maybe. I agree that it looks a bit over sharpened. I don't know this species from the wild, so I can't judge the saturation.

You cannot save time, you can only spend it wisely, or perhaps, freeze a moment of it forever in a photograph

Gorgeous flight pose with great light and colors; I also like the detail presented and didn't find this over-sharpened on my monitor. Yet I would give a bit of room all over especially on the right side where the bird is heading...Superb shot overall.
