Good news, he's not plucking himself.
It takes a while for new feathers to grow in. Just be patient and enjoy your new parrot!

Melika is right! Your bird looks a bit patchy, but in a healthy way. I would not worry. Give your bird a few weeks and everything will be back to normal. Besides, I see feather loss on the back of the head--this is a place where his/her beak cannot get.
I think it's pretty safe to say you're in good shape, and so is your birdy!
Best Wishes,
