The shot occurs right at the end of 'Uran The Tomboy', the scene with Uran participating at the Kite Flying Contest. I thought his gentle expression did deserve it to be crowned.
The rest of the bird's body got covered up by the blue background, that's why it looks so weird. The pic seems to make more sense with the background left white (as in the link I've posted), but still you have to play with imagination about the bird's remaining body parts hidden in the white haze.
