Very cool... you might want to limit his airspace on the right. IMO , there is too much there.

What a neat bird! Great pose, and a very nice background. I too would probably get rid of some of the space on the right.

Good detail in most of the highlights, nice pose and IMHO the composition works nicely. Thanks for sharing.

Cool bird!
Is it singing, screaming, or begging for food?

Really nice detail - agree with lessening all that dead space though.
