Looks like a partial pencil drawing, with colors painted in - beautiful impressionistic rendering.

this looks like you did it in camera, in which case you are a miracle worker. Stunning.

I'm not excited about the centering of the subject. You would have been right to follow the rule of thirds on this one. I do see the impressionistic feel...but, the bird needs a little more texture.

Nicely done, the trees look good, maybe if the bird weren't centered, the composition would have been a little better.

Too much of the same colour. More contrast between light and dark areas would have been better.

This seems an inappropriate subject for a blurry photo. The bird is the focal point and really isn't visible.
