Nice detail, but the back of the bird still comes in strong, maybe if you were to select the body, run a surface blur, then reduce input levels the foreground features will be enhanced and the BG features reduced. Just a thought.

Personal assessment of the note: good.
Thank you Thomas.

Nice POV. The head is very sharp. And I like the blurred background. Maybe we could edit away the dripping snot ?
