    Very well done. Love the raised wings and the squawk. The whites on the neck look a bit bright. I you can select the whites, multiply the layer, and then reduce the opacity to taste.

    later and love, artie

    ps: But for the species, it looks like the Venica Rookery...

    What a beautiful bird! Nice work making this image. I agree the whites are a little hot, but overall this image is very well done. Nice composition, including the tree that he will be landing on.
