Nice perch, pose and IQ.
I like the background too, especially the lighter green part of it.

beautiful exposure, detail, light, processing. Interesting looking perch too. I almost want to see more of the perch it's so interesting!

The dove is really good, exposure and detail. I would tone down the bright oof cactus? in the bg.

Hi Girish, tack sharp, and the colours look spot on. Interesting use of a cactus as a perch, hope he didnt stab himself - mind you they never do when perching on thorny perches. I would remove the OOF piece of cactus in the LRC.
