Good pose, nice background and a splendid bird, your whites are grey however, it looks like you have over compensated in your processing, the blacks are good helped by the flash but you can raise those whites and still have detail, I might look at getting rid of the multiple catchlights... A personal one here, I am not fond of the almost square crop, if you want to keep the bird the same size then I would lose a bit from the top, otherwise for me more to the right for the bird to be looking into...
