Magpie on a dull day

I set up on a bench to get some pics of birds but the Magpies kept stealing all the seeds.

Best I got is below:

Looking at it now its a wee bit over processed.

What's up with the eye??

Comments welcome.

Wonderful shot! Love that you caught the bird with the nictating membrane closed, the beak, eye and wing feathers all mirror a similar blue.

Thanks Jeff. Thought the eye was a weird reflection

Thank You

I am going to have another go at this. That day was very dull and I had to push ISO to get a decent shutter speed. The next sunny day will see me back out to try an photograph smaller birds.
