you need -5.6% total crit reduction to be crit immune
if you're specced correctly, you should have 3/3 survival of the fittest, which in terms is a free +75 defense, meaning you only have to get to 415 defense to reach crit immunity.
going over 415 is very pointless for druids as we dont gain +block/+parry as warriors/pallys do.
as for HP, you can probably get it higher than it is right now
i have 18k hp unbuffed, 26k armor, and 33% dodge. and the only item i have from ssc is the wildfury greatstaff. everything else is from kara/crafted except t4 shoulders.
i recommend getting heavy clefthoof set if you haven't and fully socket them with +12 stam gems. the set won't be replaced till t5, so its a good commitment to make.
that 18k unbuffed hp becomes 26k+ with full raid buffs, it's beautiful to see such a number on your screen

Since Armory is a piece of crap and trying to access the EU Armory is like piling crap on more crap, I can't actually see your Armory page so I'll just go on what's been posted.
Basically, to reiterate what everyone else is saying, there is NO reason to have more than 415 Defense. Ever. Whatever is giving you Defense outside of Equip: stats on items needs to be replaced with either Stamina or Agility or possibly even AP or Dodge. Stuff like

or

can also free up the need for Defense to even below 415 at which point you become even more free to choose what goes in the places that used to have items that provided Defense.

I finally got your eu.wowarmory page up :P
Nice gear, I wonder why you are using Ring of Unyielding Force instead of Violet Signet of the Great Protector, Violet Signet at exhalted is 98 more armor and 6 more stamina at the cost of 3 defense rating, that you don't need. :P
What I did with my druid, it's an alt, stupid lack of healers....was I got a couple pieces of the S2 and S3 gear. And I keep my Def around 400, and rely on the resilience to keep me above the uncritable mark. The PvP gear seems to have all the druid tank stats in abundance, especially Season 3 gear.
But as these guys have said, 456 Defense Rating is crazy for a druid, you may want to look at getting Footwraps of Wild Encroachment or Boots of Natural Grace, for more stats.
If you're exhalted with Keepers of Time, I found the Timelapse Shard a nice trinket to use in place of the adamatine figurine. Until I get Argassian Compass or Spyglass of the Hidden Fleet(like that will ever happen :P)
oh....great work so far :P
