    Beautiful bird, nicely shown. Nice sharp detail, wonderful colors on the bird. Thank you for sharing.

    I love the texture of the grey feathers. Just enough details in the whites. Good vertical comp. Pretty appealing image.

    Wha Sanjeev! Very nice details in the feathers. They almost like they were painted by an artist's brush.

    bird looks nice and I like the environment. Unlike the rest I feel the bird is a bit tight in the frame and if you have it would loosen the crop a little, especially behind and above the bird. Also I think the black area on the top of the head is blocked and has no fine feather details. Maybe you could try to eke some out of there.
