Love the bird's position with the feet being a real treat. Nice light on the bird against the darker BG.

I have a deep love for these quirky birds and he's just a perfect model. Lovely lighting against a dark background. I confess that I always enjoy some evidence of motion. Otherwise, the bird looks pinned as if hanging by invisible wires (just a personal preference of mine). But, what I enjoy about this image is the full splayed angle from the tips of his wings to the tips of his toes. This image shows off his quirky pelican-ism quite perfectly.
