Beautiful bird and lovely colours, captured well. I liked the composition and the eye contact. Sharp. Thanks for sharing.

This is a lovely image. Nice light and details on the bird. Has there been some cloning done on the background? I can see that the perch on the inner end looks diffused and unnatural...

Nice shot. Well captured. I feel it could do with slight reduction in saturation. Nice light. Overall a lovely image. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely eye contact .. the bird looks beautiful and sharp. I also feel that reducing the saturation a bit will help

Agree about the saturation and with Bibhav's comments about the perch. Which 300mm lens did you use. Lose the Kenko converter.

Agree with Bibhav about the perch and Apana about the Kenko converter. I have tried Kenko, Sigma, Tamron etc. You will get the best quality with the dedicated converters from Canon and Nikon. Ofcourse, you have to pay a higher amount as well.
