The first close-in portrait I've seen of this species, and it is wonderful, Debapratim. The preening pose is perfect, and the color and detail are excellent. Superb image!

Nice preening image. I'm wondering if a closer crop might be stronger.

Great close view of an amazing bird! Wonderful clarity and color. I'd be tempted to crop the OOF bottom and right side a bit, bit it's really a remarkable photo anyway.

You usual excellent standard....I do agree with one comment about a tighter crop. The leaves on the right could be removed.
You have a brilliant ability to get into the right places.

Other than agreeing about a tighter crop as it is leaning towards full on portrait I can only add how wonderful it looks
