Nice sunrise colors and good composition. The lighting on the bird looks good considering you were shooting towards the sun. The bird looks a little soft to me.

thanks, yeah his beak, the top of his head, and his right wing are a little soft, the rest is pretty sharp, I guess a 1/1000 was not fast enough!

I have a hard time making pics screen size without making them soft overall...
