Tha whole bird appears off balance and the head down attitude almost more goofy than usual. But it’s coming in to land and selecting a spot, so multiple adjustments are being made in split seconds in the birds mind. So it’s ‘wings akimbo’ until the langing place is pinpointed. I don’t mind the alterations at all.

All lightening done so far is good. I agree with Jack about lightening the shadow silhouette of the head. Plus I’d suggest darkening more the area of the rear wing that is just behind the head. It already has some shadow and if darkened would bring the brightened head out more.
