Adams, this is beautiful! You've got nice details in even the darkest of feathers and a really nice pose and HA. If it were mine (and I wish that it was) I'd possibly lighten the BG just a tad more and possibly clone out the half broken stick at the bottom.

I love the pose and overall composition. I agree with Julie's comments. The eye also seem to need tome work. You could remove one of the catchlights and increase contrast.

Very nice pose and good exposure. It isn't the nicest perch. I agree with the above mentioned comments for improvements. Congratulations.

I like the pose and similar tones of background.

Excellent pose with a good head turn. Pin sharp, and I like the detail in this. Killer BG, and I would maybe take a bit off the bottom.

Love the over the shoulders look.
