I like the burst of colour here, and of course this is a delightful bird to watch. I would have tried to include the bloom on the left. The picture seems to have been taken in harsh light which has resulted in some hard shadows.

Amit,
I agree with Apana. You have got two of the high impact primary colours Red and Green. Inclusion of the full flower at the left would have been good. I guess you have used a centre point AF that has resulted in such a composition. An early morning light would have created wonders to this scene.

We often ignore the parakeets and move in search of other species. However, parakeets can give some very nice images.

Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Sabyasachi
