The subject is interesting, well centered, and decently exposed. There is room for improvement. You may have been limited in your ability to walk around the bird because of the surroundings. Part of the wing is blocked by the tree. I'm not sure if you intended for the people to be in the picture, but if you shot from a lower angle, you could have moved the distractions out of the frame. Of course, that may introduce other distractions. You just have to play with it a bit to get the right position. From the current position, the area behind the neck and head look good, so perhaps a close-up of the head and neck detail might work from this angle.
Just some thoughts. That's an interesting looking bird.
Thanks for posting.

Nice color but other of the things in the photo detract from the main subject. Perhaps shooting at a wider aperture or using a longer lens would help. Maybe getting closer and photographing the detail of the bird?
I agree with the above posts. I think the bird itself is very interesting and I like the background with the trees. However, the people in the background are distracting. I was thinking the same thing as Warren in that perhaps it would have been nice to get a different perspective to try to change the background. It can be difficult because of limitations of where you can walk and the time allowed for the shot. I know with an 18-month old, you can't always spend 10-15 minutes composing a shot. You just have to take it as it comes. Maybe playing with it in Photoshop?
