Lovely eye contact. Can see the reflection in the eye :). Nice pose. Wish it was perched on something natural, but you cant help that. Thanks for sharing.

[Kumaran Narayanaswamy]

beautiful nice eye contact and like the composition

[Sucheth Lingachar]

beautiful... agree with Mrudul...little bit more light would have been still good....

[Sabyasachi Patra]

Nice pose. The image has come out well. A natural pose and a longer lens would have raised this several notches up. For these small birds no lens can be enough unless a person is in a hide or extremely lucky. :)
