Stork Billed Kingfisher

Stork Billed Kingfisher at ranganathittu.
Twigs were a hindrance as you can see on the edges but managed to get a shot. Found this bird to be very and it flew away as soon as I clicked.
EXIF:
Canon EOS 550D, 55-250mm
Shutter- 1/320 Sec
ISO 800
Aperture f/5.6

good one you have got nice eye contact... composition wise i think you could have framed the bird a bit more left... is this a full frame?

Nice capture... Thanks for sharing

Good eye contact. You got the focus right, even with the crowded foreground. I agree with Kumaran moving a bit more to the left would have helped to include less of the twigs on the right. You click hand held or use a tripod? Nicely captured in difficult conditions. Thanks for sharing.

I coudn't do much about the frame because I was on a moving boat. Will keep the frame in mind next time.
Mrudul I click with the camera handheld.
Thank you everyone :)

Beautiful bird. A treat to observe and photograph. Which software do you use to convert your images.

Hi sabyasachi. I used adobe Lightroom to convert and process images
