Wish this was close to you. A closer approach and a vertical composition would have been great. Unfortunately, these are small birds, and it becomes difficult to click a pleasing and frame filling composition.

Cheers,

Nice open perch. The calling pose is nice. Wish it had been close. Thanks for sharing.

Nice capture, Praveen! Based on the Orangish tinge and color on the underbelly, this looks more like a Small Minivet to me. Do you have any other shots?
