I might try to tone down the brighter areas in the background a bit more, esp the one in front of the bird.
Interesting about the slope the bird is on. My initial reaction would be to try and level it, but as I look at it more, I think it adds to the photo, so would be inclined to leave it in. More interesting than a dead level dirt patch.
I also might tone down a couple of the brightest light bits of leaf litter in the foreground.
Beautiful bird and great low angle. I like the slope too, adds a bit of dimension to the image. I wish the large leaf in front was not there, and I agree about toning down the brighter spots in the background. HA could be a bit better but still quite presentable as is.
Nice job getting low to shoot this beautiful bird. Your wide aperture resulted in the tail being beyond the focal plane, but at least the bright light from the leaves in the BG is diffuse.
Nice bird and a nice low angle. Head angled away and too many leaves for me.

Lovely image Ram ,firstly the bird name is Tickells Blue Flycatcher , i do not know whether its accidental or you have named so on purpose excuse me if on purpose reducing brightness on the bg would enhance the image IMO
