So you did apply some sharpening - the original has the sweeter bokeh and OoF rendition. The edited version looks crisper and this benefits the bird. 
I’d suggest selective sharpening with the usual tools in LR :-)

Nice lense in any case.

The lens is fairly sharp by today's standards.  I have shot with it, though only on small format sensors.
