The eye contact is nice. Tough conditions to photograph. I think a wider aperture and a lower shutter speed would have sufficed in this condition. Wish the perch was natural. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Mrudul for the feedback. I had less reaction time to shoot this as I noted this while we packed and were just moving and had to shoot this from inside the car....

Adding to Mrudul's comments, when you are clicking you have to see if the subject is small and against the sky. In those situations, you need to dial a positive exposure compensation else the image will be dark. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Sabyasachiji for the inputs... Will make a note of it
