Very nice high key image, works well with this bird. Introspective pose. Well exposed, nice detail in the whites. From personal taste, since the bird is looking straight down, I might trim 20-25% of the free space above the birds head. Did a try a version with more room on the right?
I could also see just a bit more contrast painted onto the birds face/bill. Helps it pop just a bit more. I played with the clarity setting in PS applied to the face area selectively, worked for me.
Overall, quite striking.

I agree with Randy on the crop suggestion. Nice job of processing, still up in the air about the B&W conversion. Wonder what the color version would look like?
Very nice conversion Andreas, and such elegant pose from the subject. Well processed and nice detail where it matters, I agree with taking a bit off the top.
