Taken today morning. This male was busy in building its nest and took some rest on small branch.
One branch on left side and OOF leaves in front of beak and tip of perch are cloned. Cropped and sharpened.

Canon EOS: 550D, 100-400mm.
Av mode,F.6.,1/640,ISO:1000, Evaluative metering, White balance: Auto. HH.
Exposure bias: +0.3 stop.
Thanks for viewing and appreciation. C & C are much appreciated.
Best Regards.

Satish:

Your bird is sharp, well exposed, nice pose.

The perch is a little unattractive, but the right scale for him.

I would revisit your clone work, as I can see smudges in front of the bird, and in a line extending down to the right.

Cheers

Neat bird, good clean comp (although the subject is just a bit big in the frmae IMO). The bird is well focussed, but it looks like it may have been a big crop? Some clean-up of processing artefacts would be good, as per Randy.

Agree with the above two comments re processing. I might brighten the bird a little too.

Thank you all for comments. I have tried to remove the smudges and brighten the image slightly.
Regards.
