Before you decide it's over-sharpened, check the grasses and the leaves.

Not over-sharpened, but the poor thing's eyeball seems to have fallen out.

Yeah, but long ago, Eric, long ago.

It certainly looks oversharpened, at first glance and on my monitor, or at least faintly displeasing in a way which I am inclined to attribute to oversharpening. Then I download it and check the grasses and leaves, and find no evidence of oversharpening, and look at the metadata, and find it to have been taken with a D800 and not a cell phone so eliminate one possible explanation. Then I look at it again, and it still looks faintly displeasing in the same way. I conclude that I must be missing something, possibly the bleeding obvious, and go on with the question not to attack your image, which is a nice find, but because I remember that some of my shots have looked oversharpened without being so in the same way. ???.
Modified: Is it a problem with textured rock? Mine were maybe also images of rocks. I can't find one.

Here's an example. Does this look oversharpened? Is it?

Nice find!
Here's something similar, an eagle skull:
