It is good that you got it eating. I think there was some subject movement and the low shutter speed was not sufficient to arrest it. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Bhai Subhranil,
I am placed in a predicament.Since you have seen the bird,do you feel the Bird is "Pycnonotus cafer " or "Pycnonotus bengalensis"? Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild

Nice perch. The berry in the beak adds to the image. A slight head turn in your direction would have enhanced the eye contact further. Some more space at the bottom for the tail on the right corner would be good.
I agree about the movement, it will be good if use a wider aperture like f6.3 or f7.1 instead of f11 so you will get a higher shutter speed. Thanks for sharing.

Nice to see that you have captured,in my view, the photograph of Red-vented Bulbul (Eastern race):Pycnonotus benghalensis.SaktiWild
