Super detailed portrait. What great highlights in the head feathers. Not an easy task with such fine feather detail, but some more work on removing the brown might help the presentation. Still a very lovely image.
Wonderful detail and a good exposure. Sharp with a nice BKGR. You might wish to tone down the brightest WHITEs just a bit with either a Linear Burn or some NIK Detail Exttractor. HNY!

I like the pose, detail and the bird. It looks like you may have cloned or burned around the bird's head/crest and there are some artifacts showing which may be the result of blurring or NR. A slightly less aggressive approach I think would be preferable IMHO.
Satish, nice head portrait, great details and BG. You handled the off angled light well here. Agreed with Artie regarding toning down the brightest highlights. TFS. Loi
Thank you every body for your beautiful words. I am very happy that you all liked the image.This is the first time after long time, (since bird stays in open just for fraction of second) I got good exposure on this bird.
Arthur Sir,
Thank you so much for the comments.I will tone down the brightest area.
**Merry Christmas**
