I stepped back and evaluated my workflow and ended up with this. Still too much crop but what do you guys think?

D300s
70-300mm
ISO 400
300mm
1/125 @ f/11
Cropped to 30% of orig.

Comments appreciated.

I think it is an improvement. I like the colors in this, and the composition is fine. There's still a lot of noise in the water, especially in the larger version. Now if you can avoid the deep cropping your work will look even better.

I like the crop but I think it looks a little over sharpened, and a little noise in the large version. Colours look great and the bird looks hungry ;)
Cheers

I like the pose with the open beak and it is interesting to see that you are still retaining decent image quality with such a large crop. Keep up the good work.
