Good to see one more image from your collection. I liked the way you got the eye through the two twigs. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with Mrudul's comments. It would have looked even better if the entire head and beak would been within the "v" shaped branch.

This Shikra reminded me the first time I had got a full frame image with my 300mm lens in my home at Bhubaneswar. These days with the neighbours cutting off trees, hardly any sighting of these birds. Every year december I plan to go to Kaziranga and then something happens. :( This year I changed my job (paapi pet ka sawal hai :001_smile: )

Cheers,
