Sanjeev,

A very nice pose from the Kori here, on my monitor it looks a little bright, perhaps darkening it with curves would improve it.

A very nice looking back pose captured, Sanjeev.

Yes nice bird, and I like the glance-back it gave you. The harsh light has not helped you here IMO, although the image is well exposed you have some blown whites. I like the feather tufts on the head, as well as the crossed legs.

Agree on the brightness but really like the head turn, the headdress and the flowers. I took it into PS and did a multiply layer at 15% opacity then upped the saturation about 10 points. It made a pretty big difference, and I Think you would be happy.
