Is the best 3 still LR, C1, and DXO?

A good effort, but you downsized it to 3000 long side as opposed to the original size of roughly 9000.My try with Adobe. Didn't apply any NR.

It's four times the size of the example you posted.

IMatch is a fantastic DAM - If you NEED everything it can do. I tried it and found it way too complex and with a steep learning curve. When I switched from PL6 to LR Classic I was up and running with its DAM in fairly short order, And it does everything I need and much more. BTW I really like LR Classic and its many features that are relatively easy to learn and use.
Cheers,

It's just a DAM correct? I didn't see any major editing tools unless I missed something. If it is a DAM bases only it's not surprising it is better than LrC. Great if you need all of that.

Yes. IMatch is a DAM and focuses on managing images, videos and many other file formats.
"Doing on thing right" and all that...
Users combine IMatch with a RAW processor, image editor, video/audio editor and other software. Separating the DAM part makes it very easy for them to switch to another RAW processor or software when needed.
If the built-in organization features in Lightroom Classic are sufficient for you - awesome!
Whatever works for you is good!
Thanks. LrC's DAM is more than enough for me.

Which is why I labeled the included jpg a thumbnail. I haven't yet shown my finished product in case anyone else wants a try :^)

Here's an edit I did in darktable:
I had to crop it because the bird so far to the left was hurting...

That's a wonderful shot, BTW. Okay, I need the practice with PhotoLab 7, so ...

PhotoLab + Photo AI
If it's not up to par, blame me rather than the software. I went for the 'noiseless' look just because I can. No cropping, though it could use some. And I didn't really try to blur or alter the background because I can't get a good detailed mask in PhotoLab to save my life, though I could probably have done it with something else after export. Final sharpening with Photo AI.

A try with DXO, please ignore bad color editing on my part
Very interesting. Thank you for the nice image.To Jason's Darktable or anyone else's software of choice.
Not a perfect file by any means, but it can be made to look pretty good. Let's see what you can do with it. Full size.

Another Darktable interpretation. Some masking to increase contrast on the stork without affecting the background.
