baya weaver collecting nesting material @ Dadri 100-400 @ 300mm f 5.6 iso100

Nice to see it busy collecting grass blades for its nest. As it has stretched itself to pull the grass, a vertical composition would have worked well here to get the feet in full. Good that the eye is in focus even with the blades blocking it. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.

Nice action. I agree with Mrudul about the need to get the feet in the image. The hint of catchlight in the eye helps. If you could have clicked from a slightly lower angle, then the eye would have been in focus. Nevertheless they move their head and clicking when the eye contact is better would elevate the image several notches. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
