Good band.

Beautiful and funny birds. LOL! The bird whose crest makes it seem like they have an extra wing on their head.

I will say that all those shades of white make the bird deceptively difficult to draw!

Try using a tortillon when doing white or grey feathers. It will create the depth and subtlety needed without darkening it sharply.
