This was taken at Kabini. The bird was fairly close to the jeep and I had ample time to shoot. I hope I've got the id right?

Udai,
The id is right. It is an Indian Roller and is also known as blue jay or neelkanth. I would like some more brightness to this image. I like the blurred trees in the background and the dry branch on which it is sitting doesn't look distracting. I would have experimented with f8 for some added depth of field. Thanks for sharing.

Nice shot.Liked the composition, the bird visible through the dry branches giving it a different look.
Look forward to more.
