Was sitting in the hide when this action was captured. The bird was there on the perch for around 15 mins, providing me with an opportunity to focus manually.

Good to know you could get closer. The preening pose is nice. Good eye contact. The light seems a bit harsh. Thanks for sharing.
Nice one Atul. I like the composition and the eye contact. The depth of field is fine. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks ! yeah, the light was bit harsh. It was around 10.40 and I was on my way back, when I just decided to put in a bit extra, sit there in the bushes and wait for an opportunity. It was well worth it.
