Nice perch and good eye contact. Slight less space on the left would have helped to avoid the bright sky in the background. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely image. The sky is a tad too bright in this image. Not sure if moving around would have helped as you might have got the bird's back with the palm leaves as bg if you had moved to the left. Nicely clicked under trying conditions. Thanks for sharing.

PS: Did you spot any king cobras while in agumbe?

[Kartik Bhat]

Murugan,
We went there to click Kings,but Kings are very hard to spot.We ended up clicking birds

Nice sighting. You were on its shadow side, else, it would have been even better. A low angle would be icing on the cake. :) Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
