Carlette,
What a nice composition and something rare when shooting these birds....you have detail in both the white beak and the black feathers. Nice job on exposure. You can even see most of the feet. There are a couple of white areas on the left side of the image (looks like a branch of some sort) that you could clone out if you felt the need. Nice job!!

It's a nice shot overall, but I would try a little warming. :wavey:
