Thanks for viewing and appreciation. C & C are highly appreciated.

Nice perch and BG and the bird matches so well. Interesting pose withe those talons gripping the perch and the chocked head. I might consider moving the bird just a tad to the right.

I like the pose, open beak, sharpness, details and BG. I agree with Marina`s crop suggestion and would consider using a 3 x 4 crop ratio like this. Removed second catch light too.

Very nice pose and bg colors.

Nice simple image Satish, liking the birds inquisitive pose, light looks nice especially the way it falls onto the beak

Cool little bird, I like Jim's crop and the BG goes excellent with this bird.

Very nice pose and perch.
Excellent warm color, Satish.

Thank you all for the feed back and nice comments.

Jim: Thanks a lot for the time you have spend on the image.Yes,it looks great.

Regards,
Satish.

very nice good details light good subject the only thing you could have done is to gone f8 just bring a bit more in focus

Hi Satish, The background behind the bird being a lighter color of the bird makes this picture very good. Blurred BG, head of the bird in good focus makes one feel that the bird is talking to the viewer. very nicely done !
