Perhaps I should have said nothing about artifacts. I know you are just doing
this for fun, and it was fine for that. I
don't expect your purpose was to make a lovely, clean image of the subject.

Still, as I have started ... I believe the truth is that you don't have the
equipment or software, and have used the
wrong technique, to get a clean image of this subject.
A tripod, allowing shooting at base ISO, would have helped a great deal, as
would more capable software and skill in
using it. Another significant part comes down to the camera itself.
At 300 mm and longer focal distances the Tammy 28-300 is fine, but not
outstanding. The FF equivalent is 480 mm, vs.
about 1000 mm for your setup. Used on a tripod, with shutter pre-release, on a
contemporary sensor system, this is what
one may get.

Here is a 100% crop.

Not quite enough
DOF, and not especially sharp at the pixel level, but very little noise and
almost no artifacts.
This is not by way of showing off, well ... , but primarily to give you a clear
idea of what is possible without
expensive equipment or heroic effort.
