Sharp with a perfect pose and great timing on the action. Would like to see it a bit darker on the midtones and with a bit more contrast. Getting rid of the sharper branches and/or doing a Gaussian blur on the stuff below is an option.

Congrats Manjesh on a great shot! I like the sharpness and the landing pose with the stick. Great underside detail. I like the hints of habitat and background colours...I might try just a bit of blur on the two background trees, but this works for me as presented.
I really like the sharp detail and the angle at which you captured the bird. I increased the contrast a bit but go hot spots so I think I would leave as is.
