Hey Andreas,
Pretty sharp on wings for that SS!!! Exposure and BG look good although I am debatingthe white feather? eviction from that BG. I haven't seen this species....so not sure of sharpnesss on neck.....maybe a bit too much......although sometimes those feathers do look that way. Nice on this species overall!

nice shooting angle and pose. judging by the iso, I guess you wanted the blur. I think it works. The BG is a bit distracting to my eyes. I'd have opened up the aperture some more.

Beautiful portrait, great details and sharpness.
