This is cropped for 11X 14 portrait. Not sure if I like it landscape.

Maybe shift the picture a little to the left to get the end of the branch on the right?

If you like everything else like the openness you could just mask the branch shorter.

I know you asked for a 11x14 crop however don't let a frame size determine what may look best. Personally, I think a square crop would look best for this print like the example below. The 11x14 landscape seemed too much space for the subject and a 11x14 portrait had the bird's beak up against the frame.

Just in case there was something about the original crop that you liked, and just in case you find the portrait oriented crops a bit claustrophobic, here's another for you to consider. It keeps the same aspect ratio but crops in a bit and places the dove higher up in the frame.

I like your crop and I do like the landscape orientation.
