Nice exposure to get the white plumage detail, Sid - pops out against the black BG. May be worth repairing the missing feathers on the neck.
expo looks great and BG is killer

I really like completely black backgrounds and it works well with this subject -- the exposure is spot-in. I wish the legs didn't disappear as much into the background as they do, though.
