Thanks .. thats what I thought, but the pictures thrown up to the description on google showed more of brown down to the tummy. This one is more yellow and only at the throat.

the underbody in this image is overexposed.

Agree about the id with Roopak. This seems to be a big crop, so there is loss of details. Some more space all around would be good. When I searched in google it showed the same bird. You can see this link -

Yes.. agree. Thank you

You have cropped a lot so pixellation has taken place. Agree with Roopak and Mrudul that the image is overexposed. You need to also keep an eye on people pumping up the saturation so that also often changes the colours. Slowly you will be aware of those.
