The lighting on the bird seems kind of drab, muddying the color - especially compared to those lovely shades on the right.

Eh, how noisy can a cockatiel be? Try a cockatoo or a macaw. :)

4 - Don't mind the concept (close crop), although wonder about how well it fits into a 'Pet Portrait' category. Definitely bigger (640 width) and a little richer coloring and textures coming through, make this better in my opinion. The reflection in the eyes.. works as far as the 'lines' go with the lines of the feathers, but perhaps a more neutral reflection may have helped bring the 'star' more attention.

Interesting crop; nice detail. With that title I was expecting a squawk-in-progress, though ;-)
