Why:
1. more dynamic feel: there is motion blur in the wing, and what you are capturing here is motion. It is most evident in this frame
2. Head angle is perfect: I feel better connection and eye contact with the subject in this frame
3. Eye height is optimal: a bit too low in the frame in the next image D

In short: this picture says to me: I am ruffling my feathers, and LOOKing at you now!
Dave.
