KD stole my critique. Love the look back HA and the raised crest. Neck looks hot-a Linear Burn might help. Try starting from scratch and re-converting with no RGB values in the WHITEs greater than 230. (Use the Recovery Slider to get there...)

lovely pose and sweet light, I agree with toning down the chest area a bit (red channel)

Thank you all for the feedback.
Now, I've reduced the highlights and the red channel, I think, so it looks better.

Gorgeous bird, beautiful light and lovely head turn. I'm looking at the repost on my crappy work monitor, but I would tone down the hot areas selectively without darkening the entire image.

The repost is an improvement though possibly a bit overdone as the WHITEs are a bit grayed out. As I have learned through personal experience it is a fine line :).
