Help with this robin?

This guy caught me off guard and flew the wrong way. I was lucky enough to get this shot and I kind of like it, but I wish it was flying into the frame rather than out of it. I tried selecting it and flipping it in Photoshop, but no luck/ beyond my skill level. Is there any way to do what I am trying to do?

This is the best that I could do with a quick visit to Lightroom. Perhaps you should post this in For Your Consideration.

Here is a rough effort that needs cleanup in the bush at the robin's face and in the upper left side.

Sorry I didn't add how I worked your request...was too weary to type legibly then, so I grabbed a bit of shuteye first.
This was done in Snapseed.
Flipped the pic to a mirror image to put the subject on the right side.
Cropped off most of the left side of the flipped pic.
Took the subject out of your original.
Stacked the flipped pic onto your original, trying to position it to appear reasonably actual.
Here is the subject in a mirror image position, in case there is something different you would rather do. It is probably a bit larger than you want, due to cropping away the left side.
Hopefully, it gives something you can use to work it differently if needed.

Thanks, Dustie.
I worked at it again last night- had better success but you did a nice job with the background. Thanks for spending some time on this and sending the selection for me to work with.

Just playing around. Did a whole bunch of cloning then added noise (3) to level noise braking up the smooth cloning. Final edit was to remove some noise overall.

You are welcome.
Good to know you've had some success with it.

That is nice. Bringing detail into the feathers adds a lot to the visual appeal.
