I also wouldn't be afraid to use eben higher ISOs for this type of image...your camera can take it, and you'd have higher shutter speeds better keeper ration (less images lost due to subject motion blur).
Having said this I find it an impressive first post with a high degree of difficulty.
P.S. Yes to masking the bird before selectively adjusting the exposure on it....
