I like the "more bird less water" of the tighter crop. I also empathize 
with Jack's comment about centering. I think that you could crop a bit 
more off of the left (between the two big broken shells?) and if you 
want to preserve the aspect ratio a bit off the top.


The yellow clam is merely good, while the bird is great. If I were to 
follow my rule of get rid of everything that is merely good, leaving 
only the great stuff, I'd crop to the left where I mentioned above, crop 
the bottom just below the feet, and leave stuff on the right to maintain 
aspect ratio and give some space in front of the bird.
