Proficient capture and good placement of the subject in the frame, though I'm interested in why you took the picture in portrait format.
If I hadn't read your comment on the post, I wouldn't really have known what the bird was doing, and not being able to immediately make this connection, makes me want to pass over it. It is often very difficult to portray a subject engaged in some activity like this, without the subject looking a bit odd, which I think is the case here. Is there a shutter lag on the SD10?

Interesting shot but not an attractive pose. That black blob in the bg catches my eye all the time...might be better removed (the blob)!
