C&C appreciated

I like the shot overall because of the neutral color tones and the contrasting b/w areas on the bird (goose?) itself. However, I do want to say that something seems off in the crop. I'd give it more breathing room on the left side and then see what could be done to adjust the rest. A vignette effect might also help beef things up.

Nice shot. I agree with Adam about the crop but I would like to see a bit more above the bird also. Like the B&W.

Given the title I expected to open this one up and see models in feathers or something, laugh.
