    I like the BG, pose and sharpness. I wish the tail didn't intersect the perch. I haven't seen a Shikra for a long time but I think this bird is more heavily armed than a Shikra. It has huge feet and big beak. Unfortunately I don't know what it is without doing a little research.
    However, I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be a Shikra.

    You did a terrific job with this image, Reza. Exposure is good and you have a lot of details and good colors. Love the pose and the fact that you get a good look at those feet and talons.

    Next time you post an image could you please include what equipment you are using and your settings. That would really help us when we are commenting and critiquing. Looking forward to seeing more of your images.
