Comments and Suggestion always welcome. I also want to learn "How to sharpen the image?"

Nice composition. Its good to see a sunbird feeding the chicks. I liked the way the chicks are peeping out with the beaks open.
I think the bird is not focussed as their was subject movement. Very high shutter speed is required to photograph these small birds. The light was quite bad and you were already using ISO 800, so it was difficult to have more shutter speed. You did well in the given conditions. Which software are you using to process your images?

Thanks Mrudul,

I used Adobe photoshop.

A nice behaviour captured. The chicks visible in the image are nice. Using a positive exposure compensation here would have been good. Thanks for sharing.

Your shutter speed was less as the nest was in shade.

You needed to give positive exposure compensation in this case. Please check the tips section for tutorials on exposure.

I hope you had taken adequate care while photographing this image. No image is more important than the welfare of the subject. If we go too close, there may be danger of the mother deserting the chicks. Worse, birds like crow are intelligent enough to follow people and can destroy the chicks. It is always possible to set up a makeshift hide and sit there and observe without disturbing the birds. Better to be careful.

Thanks for all your views.

I am sorry Sabyasachi,henceforth I will take care, so that birds are not disturbed.but luckily these chicks grew up and flew away.

Next time I will be more careful.
