This is a female sunbird. I had shot it during my Malaysia trip.

1D Mark II, EF 400mm F2.8 L IS USM, EF 2xII, ISO 800, f5.6, 1/250. full frame.

Nice find, details and eye contact. Too bad you clipped the feet.

I'd like to see another round of sharpening here Sabyasachi. I might also remove the light vertical branch above the bird. Thanks for posting!

Beautiful little bird. I would like to see more canvas at the bottom and the OOF the flower to the right is a bit distracting. Very nice eye contact and excellent detail. Many thanks for sharing Sabyasachi.

Dear all, I had posted this as I was not happy with this image and wanted feedback. The feathers appear very coarse to me. I am not sure whether it is due to the limited d-o-f or general lack of sharpness. I just converted this in lightroom without tinkering with the sharpness. While saving I clicked on shaprening for media.
Regards,
