After some light preening, this bird shook his body feathers and tail but not his head. The result is a very interesting shot with feet and head dead still and the rest of the bird in motion. I also like the almost head on shot with crest raised.

I agree with you. This is one image that the blur of the body draws attraction to the most important (at least photographically) attribute of this bird-the head and crest.
