    40D, Canon 100-400@250mm, 1/200 f 9.0, ISO 800. Too bad not a better head-turn.

    Excellent sharpness. As you say, a head turn would be nice. The top of the beak looks a little hot. Perhaps a bit more room on the right.

    Very nice hsaking moment :) Great detail and colors. You can fix the top of the bill with the instructions given here:

    Saving the whites by multiplying the highlights will work for all the light colors.

    Yes, better head angle would be...well...better, and I would look into toning down the bill (Fabs' tutorial is a good read). The WB seems a little on the cool side of things, I'm sure warming it up would help.

    Excellent detail captured here, and a better turn would have been great.

    Perfect except for that head angle. Wow! It is razor sharp and there is so much great detail! :)
