Hi Enrique
I must say for a shutter speed at 1/30 you handled this photo remarkably well at 300mm focal length. With this settings I must assume that you made use of a tripod or else you had a very steady support to keep the camera very still. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I am glad you got the name and this is exactly what makes TN such a wonderful site. There is always someone who knows and who will help.
The colours are good, but I feel the sharpness is slightly lacking. Probably due to the slow shutter and extended focal lenght as said above. In my opinion you could have given the bird more room in front by not cropping it so close on the left hand side so that it have some space to look into or move into. Try that with your photo at home and see the improvement the photo will show. The background is well out of focus. Well done and thanks for sharing.
