Nice color and detail. It's cropped a little too close for my taste, though. I would have liked to see the top of the head and the end of the beak. But that's just me :)

This is a woderful shot that could have been perfect with a little catch light for the eye. But I'm being picky. Nice job.

Ok ,is an interesting shot, but as you know is extremely cut off with losing the beak from it. It just doesn't feel quite complete.
