Looking for criticism of course. . .

I already did some sharpening and level adjustments as well as very mild HDR in LR, a program I'm still struggling with tho gradually "getting".

I'd crop some of the background as the birds are the interesting part, and maybe lighten it a bit.

Nothing much to change. I think you should not crop - it is good as it is. You want to keep the environment in which the pic was taken to give it context. Don't know much about birds but I think they are water birds and for them to sit in trees is giving the photo interest.

I can think of something you could change though, how about: "Three sleepy heads and one corkscrew neck"
