Hi Jack, No, the whole picture is lovely, especially the bird - the motion blur is perfect for that. The composition on the diagonal, and the position of the bird are superb - it really is a great shot.
I'm just referring to the group of out of focus highlights in the top left corner. They make a good compositional balance, and all I say is that I can tell from their shape that your lens has 6 blades.
