You've got the focus, DoF and exposure, but not the angle I'm afraid! Nice level of detail in the feathers though.

The pose is fine for me. The eye has a nice catchlight, the perch and background are both great- nice capture- would love to have a shot as good as this.

Not much wrong with the pose for me. I'd be very happy with it!

a very nice shot, the pose is almost there for me but not quite. Still very good though and a nice perch and background.

Try making a small noise just before taking the shot to get the head\ turn, sometimes just the cameras noise is enough. Srtill a nice shot, and a good foundation to work from.
