Something tells me that you like something about this shot, and for some reason it has appeal to me if it were not for the foreground twig through the bird, I think it is the lighting I quite like.
I am very much one never bothered by distractions like branches, twigs etc as they perch where they perch but in this case I think the twig it a bit too much of a distraction.
If the twig was not there a crop off the right hand side which would put the eye which is sharp on the thirds which would make it an acceptable image imo
