Sameer this is really good, nice wing position, good catchlight in the eye, catch in beak, overall complete frame i'd say. Since you are using a zoom lens was it possible to keep some more space on top (although know that im sounding a lil crazy here:001_smile:)
All in all a good bird in flight shot.

Nice to see a grey hornbill in flight with a catch. Nice flight pose and good eye contact. Is this a crop? There seems to be some loss in details. You could have included some more space all around. Thanks for sharing.

yes it was possible and i have taken that too.....but this one looked good to me.

Nice flight pose. Like the wing position and eye contact here.

Great shot of this shy bird..a stop down could be even better, but then this is very crisp & clear too, very well done!
