WB was set to cloudy and this was a cloudy day. I shoot RAW but did not feel that the WB was off from what i saw. My monitor is calibrated, but it still may come off a little green. Thanks a bunch everyone for the comments. He was beautiful bird.
Outstanding image with effective comp. As for the WB its not unusual for the white feathers to have a greenish or yellowish reflection from surrounding vegetation and/or light.
The front feathers seem to have a bit of loss of detail perhaps from NR applied in processing or by the camera.

It's hard to tell here, but as he was preening, he was turning his head from side to side and there were many more brown feathers still in his hood. It was much easier to tell if you were there that he wasn't quite an "adult" although he was full-sized. If you look closely at his hood in this pic you can still see a few brown feathers, but most were toward the back.
