Pretty bird. Good handling of the shadows/highlights, considering the harsh light.

I like the lifted leg Ken and at first wasn't sure if I liked the extreme left placement, but once I realized it includes the entire shadow of the bird, I was much more fond of it and think it was a great decision. Nice work!

Nice pose, Ken. Detail looks good, though the whites seem a bit high.

Nice comp, and love those bright colors and sharp coloration. I really like the lifted leg; I think it really adds to this. Nicely done, this feels like a portrait.
