As a portrait I miss some light to shape the back of the head, and to emphasise the glint of feathers. For this challenge, I'm not wholly sold on the absence of location. I could imagine it published in a guide, but were I editing I might prefer a similar shot with a sense of place to it. Not a major point perhaps, but significant. Great tonality, especially that eye; depth of field a little shallow? Sense of blurring around the outline of the beak seems odd in this composition.

Wow, great color. I think this shot would have benefited form a little more definition in the body area of the bird. But overall great job!

Nice simple photo with odd shape for the frame (a castle ruin window, I presume).
