I wish the other wing of the bird is not in shadows. I am not sure about the highlights in the background

Image quality is ok, but light is hard. I would remove the second catchlight in the eyes.

The bird looks good here, on the iMac...Looks almost 3D. I'm afraid I don't like the BG though.

The pose is decent on the duck. I don't mind the background.

Lovely posture and sharpness. Personally I would remove the OOF ducks in the background
