Himadri, so beautiful - I especially love the incoming spread-wing pose. Great interaction with the onlooking bird, and the complementary BG adds - wonderful work!

Just perfect, with both front and back view of this beautiful pair, and the 'angel' wing spread of the incoming subject. Exquisite detail.

Couldn't be sweeter, Himadri. Love it!

Stunning shot of this pair, Himadri. I love that the arriving bird, with wings spread, has its head turned looking at the bird on the perch. Excellent.
