Venu...a beautiful scene very well captured. Can understand the lighting conditions in this part of the world now. I guess you have got a the best of it.

It looks like you handled the harsh light very nicely, Venu.  Given all that white bg on the left, I'd be inclined to play with other crops (perhaps a vertical?)  to minimize it.  Gorgeous colors in this bird and you caught some great action.

Nice color and detail in the birds. Also good behavior. I agree with trying a vertical crop to remove some of the white.

Very nice action scene with very nice detail. I agree the vertical crop would really help here.

Very sweet image.  Only nit is the white background.
