This is a superb portrait Joe.
The blacks and the bill are perfectly exposed as well ( very difficult to achieve this).
I see a magenta cast in the chest feathers- easy fix.
Excellent comp and love the grey BG,

Like Gail says, not an easy bird to get the exposure spot on with - at least if they're anything like our Brit versions, and I bet the Florida light makes it even harder not to blow the whites.
Nice exposure control and great details in this clean portrait. Well
Come join me for a Custom Raptor Workshop starting this November 2019- January 2020.
