Hi Lavan.
You have chosen a good composition of him sitting alone up there. Here a spot focus on the bird would have helped expose for the black as he is a little dark with no detail. When we point our cameras to a bright area like here with all the sky, our cameras under-expose because they think the scene is bright. When it is a black bird that then makes the bird to dark. Do try again either with spot focus or over-exposure on your camera, you will see a big difference. It is always important to try for the catch-light in the birds eye.
Another thing to help your image is to crop out the bottom to just above the power-lines to take out all the distraction in the bottom of the image, your bird will then stand out alone.
Hope these ideas help, have another go, thats how we learn.
