You almost nailed it!! Just a bit more details in the feathers and this would have been a 10

It's not easy to photograph something all white and not lose all the detail, in my experience. Good job keeping the feathers defined.

Well captured, would be even better if it had more space to look into on the LHS

He's pouffed! I don't usually see them quite this compact ;-) Nice detail and the red in the background is a beautiful complement to the white.
