Hard to shoot up against that sky.

I hope your lens was wearing protection, if you know what I mean :)
 
I would use a black and white setting and play with the levels a bit for a more "contrasty" photo.
 
A couple of tweaks...

Thought I would play with the photo a little. I don't know if you were going for more detail in the clouds or more brightness to the birds but here are my versions of editing in Photoshop Elements. One is full color with just changes in lighting, two is full color with a light touch of HDR from ReDynamix and the last is black and white with a very soft white vignette and a slight boost in contrast.
 
It was fun... You can get alot of different looks just changing curves, levels and contrast... Thanks for letting me play with it...
 
I liked the last two, brighter in contrast, and B & W worked great, since not alot of color to begin with. gives me an idea when and how to use B&W.
