Nice photo but I found the colours a bit bland. Boosted up the saturation, added some contrast with levels and messed around a little with the mid tones in curves. Also did a little sharpening. Don't think it really need any cropping though, the overall composition is pretty good.

yep, i definately agree with you about the colours. i played around with it a bit more, cropped it, blurred the grass, sharpened the animals (not sure but may have oversharpened) and added a border. think i like this version better than the original..seems to jump out at me a bit more.

You got a great picture.  I thought  it a little flat.  So i used my normal workflow:
1. Remove noise
2. Shadow/Highlight
3. Levels and or curves
4. Saturation
5. Sharpen.
All without going overboard.
