This is lovely, Praveen! Nicely exposed to bring out the colors well - exposure is a challenge with this bird. Curious head turn that brings out the eye and open beak adding a lively feel. Wish the angle was little lower.

Nice image. The composition is good. the open mouth is a plus. Thanks for sharing.

The calling pose looks nice. The yellow flowers make the image colourful. The details and the eye contact is nice. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with the previous comments. Nice low angle. I guess you were pretty close.

Cheers,
