Nice colours. The BG is smooth and well diffused. Looks like a little more DoF was required. Some of the fine details seem to be lost- did you do any noise reduction?

I agree with Abhishek.

Posting the location and dates will serve as a database.

Also, agree about the need for higher depth of field. You had used f5.6. Ofcourse, light was low and you were at ISO 800. However, a narrow aperture here would have been good as the head portion would then have also been in focus. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice wing spread. The colours and the patterns look nice. I think some more some more space all around would have been good. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
