Love the low angle, light, pose and reflections- as well as the BG. Nice capture, Mital.

I like the interaction, angle and BG and would tone down the highlights. I'm not familiar with this species but it looks a bit too yellow on my monitor.

Very cool low angle shot, Mital. This one has a surreal quality to it that I like.

harshadbhai, its been year we are working together in the sanctuary and now it becomes more important to share a new find than to photograph for us. so whenever we get something from any of our window we first take 500+1.4 and take records or nice shots and change card for mine too in it ..

then we plan for better photography..
kind of 1st birdwatcher for new species and then a photographer. :)
