I agree Judd, lovely BG. I might trim a little off the right as I find the feathers bottom right a little distracting.

Colors are wonderful, I really like the interesting crop/composition. Something different - it's interesting. I like how the background lines lead you to the head. It's beautifully framed. Really nice shot!
