Nice frame. The perch with its criss-cross of dried branches looks beautiful.The red eyes are unmistakable.Thanks for sharing.
I agree that your shutter speed was low. You could have easily increased the ISO. Shikra is one common bird across India. Majestic nevetheless. Some years ago Mrudul had posted a photo of a Shikra catching a palm squirrel, so one can also fined these birds ready to predate within our compound walls. Thanks for sharing.
