    Crop is fine. I might clone out a few twigs, like the one sticking out of its butt, the one stabbing it in its left shoulder, and maybe those two twigs coming up towards its feet in from the bottom edge in the center.

    It is hard your osprey shot is very nice and then you say how much work do I want to do -cloning out things around the bird, twigs and then you have them mixing with the pine needles, so it is how much time headscratch.gif the more you shoot the easier it is to see the background but when the birdies show up and the shooting starts lots of time you see the back ground in the computer
    I would crop off a little from the rt [the tree] and some from the left -the clone
