I like the eye contact. I wish it were in sunlight. I am not sure about the crop. A lower colour temperature would be better. This is because increasing the colour temperature during post processing to give a warmer look increases the highlights.

Cheers,

I liked the way it is peeping :). I think a bit more space at the right would enhance the composition further. The leaves on the left distract. Thanks for sharing.

Satishchandra-Thanks for ID of the owlet.

Thanks Sabyasachi and Mrudul for suggestions & comments.

This is a closer view of the same owl with bit more space on the right.I have decreased the colour temp a little bit.
