    I like your choice of crop.
    Nice pastel palette and whites look good.
    I feel that the color balance needs to be tweaked a bit- the bill looks too orange?
    Very nice Joe!

    I love their blue eyes, it looks really good here too. I'd be OK with a bit more room at left, but OK as is too. Was there something reflecting its' colour back up onto the ibis?

    That blue eye pops nicely here. The crop works well. Nice detail on the bird.
