It'd be awesome if you'd tell me what that is so I can work on it next time c:
When a bird is flying, The upstroke (wings being pulled up) Curl in then with the down stroke, The wings, mainly the feathers, curl in/out pointing towards the back.
In your animation, The wings don't express that. The down stroke doesn't show the curl very well. With the down stroke the wings expand, so it has as much contact with the air around it to support its body. And I don't see that. ^^"
Also, since what your animating has weight, it should have dropped more, Going through down stroke then it should pull up with the up stroke.
But you have a lot of good with this, that far outweighs the one bad, The animation is smooth. Its colored! I've tried animating and doing anything past a sketch animation just kills me to attempt. It has a background, Which can be both easy or hard to put in a animation. Technically you have a run cycle and a flying cycle in this, Each of which is hard by itself to get right :3 and you got the run cycle pretty much spot on.
So, That is what I think. lol I kinda went over what you wanted me to tell you, But I didn't want to leave a comment making this animation sound horrible, which I probably would have accidentally done if I didn't mention the good as well. Please do point out anything I have wrong, I'd like to know in case the bird references I looked at for flying were messed up ones x3
but lovely animation xD
