    Sanjeev:

    I like the pose of the bird and flower, the angled perch, the color harmony between breast and flower. It looks like he may have just taken a bath, with that scruffy head and neck do! I might try to tease a sliver more out of the darks on the head and neck area.

    Comp wise, I would try a version cropped a bit from the right to decenter the bird. with a smaller crop from left, and perhaps a sliver off the top. Matter of taste, and whether you have enough pixels to make it look good when cropped.

    Neat looking bird. Like how the color of the flower and the color of the bird match. I could see it cropped from the right some.
