Rare sighting. Nice composition. Fine details. It has rotated its head by say,120 degree. Colours appear to be brighter. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Nice sighting of this rare bird. Beautiful eye contact. Some more space all around with a proportional crop would enhance the image further. There seems to lot of noise in the background. Reducing the sharpening and the saturation would be good. Thanks for sharing.

Nice to see this bird. The shutter speed was very less. It has lovely eyes. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice sighting and good eye contact sir. you got it the open. agree a wider aperture wud have given some more shutter speed.

I have been trying to record the spooky call of this bird.Haven't got a clear one till now.
