Nice picture of the bird perched delicately on a thin branch, Abhirup. The details have come out well, the thorns in the tree and the bird's comfort in settling in between them highlights this image. Thanks for sharing.

Slight head turn towards us would have been nice. The bird on the thin branch shows how delicate it is. And we should also realise that these warblers feed on insects which would have devoured the leaves. They are voracious feeders and help contain the insect population. Without them all the plants would have been finished off. So in the earlier days farmers used to have trees around their fields so that these beauties can sit on the branches and then fly off and feed on the insects.

Cheers,

Its good you have nice light falling on its had area. Just a bit more space on the right would have strengthened the composition further. Thanks for sharing.
