Would appreciate your comments on processing in particular the blown white that I have made worse

Original, only cropped

Processed - I seemed to have spoiled it, maybe???

That's good Den

They do have translucent feathers and the ones on the neck can reflect light so that it blows on the taken image

what did you do?
 
I don't know Bill, only joking,it was just a few tweaks with the Exposure ,just a touch ,vibrancy ,a small shadow lift and sharpened a touch ...I suppose everyones take on it would be different but I did google the bird
 
It is an Hadada Ibis Den, … most of the shots that i have, have got the white blown bit in that area under the lower cheek
 
Its always going to be difficult with whites on any bird ,their is only some much you can pull back in editing before it looks a horrible silver grey ,if only a small percentage of the bird is white as in this case , me personally I don't worry to much about it and concentrate on the bigger picture ,and hope you get away with it ,some lovely colours on these birds though ...
