The berry in the mouth is a plus. I would pull up the blacks a bit and reduce contrast here. A slight head turn in your direction would have been good as well. The environment is nicely portrayed. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely shot. Great environment portrait. I love this bird too, very cooperative. :)
The sharpness on the wings is slightly less than that of the head, is this due to the wide aperture?

Seasons Greetings to you too.
