Typical attentive myna, Satish. Their wariness does make them difficult subjects. Nice and sharp. A lighter BG would show the dark head better but you can't change what you're given.

Love the blue ye, and good job with the dark areas of the plumage. Seeing that the tail shadow is clipped I would have preferred you point your lens down a bit more (or kept some canvas there if it is cropped below)
