Super Sanjeev. The subject has enough room, the composition is good and there's nice eye contact. I might try a crop that moves the top right part of the perch away from the corner of the image.

Lovely capture with terrific light, colors and pose. What a stunner this bird is. I personally feel the opposite as John does about the perch. I would rather crop to have the perch go right into the corner. It's all a matter of taste.

Beautiful photo. Love the colors and simple BG.

Excellent work Sanjeev. Love the head turn, catchlight, sharpness and colours of the bird. The diagonal perch is also great. To top it all off, you got a lovely muted BG.
