    Looks to me like you nailed the exposure in some really harsh light well done. They have some crazy red eyes very similar to a Canvasback.

    Very pleasing image, simple and clean; reminds me of a JJ Gould painting. I appreciate the DOF as everything is in focus; all the foliage and head to tail on the Koel and @5.6. I like the complimentary background and bird colors and the red eye draws me right in.

    Another fine image Satish. Great looking look back pose and lovely details on the bird. The perch is also looking good against the BG colour. Nice work.

    Not much to add to what has been said. A fine looking image all around.
    Well done . Nice position of the bird on the perch.

    Wonderful look back pose, Satish. Like the leafy perch, and the purplish blue BG/sky.

    Subject placement on the perch is too good! The pose makes the shooting angle work very well. You also managed the dof brilliantly for shooting at an upwards angle. There is some cloning work that needs to be cleaned up in the upper right corner.
