I'd vote for a slightly faster shutter speed so you can get the bird sharper. And, you may want to change the cropping (if possible) on the first one. Usually you allow more room in the direction that a person is looking or an object is moving.

f/11 and f/13 are not apertures for taking photos of birds in flight. You were in shutter priority, why did you chose such a low shutter speed (and at 225mm)? 1/200s is borderline hand holdable at 225mm and you were trying to freeze motion as well.
