Welcome to the Avian Gallery, Mike. This is an excellent first post and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work. The rumpled plumage is always one of my favorites and there's a nice pose. It looks like the whites are under pretty good control and you have nice detail in them. I do think the bird could use just a touch of sharpening as it looks just slightly soft in the larger image. Nice placement of the bird in the frame.
