Really nice Ron. Great interaction, comp, exposure, DOF. Really a splendid image. I do see some color banding in the BG in both images, but that may just be compression rearing its ugly head. Well done.

Lovely, intimate image.
Love the fluff-ball chick. Some of the whites are quite hot, but this should be easilky to bring down.
The little grasses on the lower left might be cloned out.

Nice composition and interaction. The dark halo around the subjects where they meet the blue sky is a distraction and I suspect it is the result of trying to bring down the brighter parts of the plumage.

Ya know, I am not much into the technical aspects of this image. This image brought my eye straight to the interaction of the parent and chick. This is an excellent image, for its content!

Nice interaction Ron, nice details in the plumage too. I would work on the dark halo Rich M mentioned. Composition works for me.

I am not as advanced as the other commentators but I would try their advice on this stunning shot.
