I did not try to improve, as I like the shot like it is, but to give a different (sunset)ligthing and sharpen a bit.

Used Shadows & Highlights, levels.
Then USM 120% - 0,3 - 0
Hope you like.

I just warmed up the colors a bit on PP. Of course this is no substitute for a real filter on your camera when you took this shot but it will give you an ideea of what could`ve been in regards to the shades of color. You have wonderful captures for which I recommend you should consider warm up filters and lower ASA 100 and under. Am I corect you are not using them, at least in this photo ? It can only increase the value of your photography, since you have something few things what average photographers outdoor/wildlife dont: stealth, knowledge, persistence, great tools and experience with animal behaviour. There is too much grey in your pictures, your compositions are very desirable but intermediary colors are dull... I hope you still consider me a friend, it is only because I see the valuable potential in your photography and I have the rudeness of an art critique ...
Lower ASA will dramatically overcome soft focus result and a warm up will push the palette of colors a few notches (81A or 81B I know personally but there is more on the market).

I reduced the greys whom even though are the natural color of the birs were oversaturated, and enhance the red and yellow to contrast more, I cropped a bit and added a simple black frame. Now its ready for NG !
