This owl was on special bg for my surpise.
Composition was tricky.
Went for the pose where bird looked to the side.
Thanks for viewing

My main critique is with the placement of the owl in the frame, vertically-speaking. You have it right in the middle. I'd prefer to see it either in the upper or lower third. The background pattern is so nice here, I'd have no problem seeing you crop from the bottom to remove some of the perch, emphasizing the frond lines even more.

I do think you made the right choice here, putting it on the right side of the frame, given that's it's looking left.

Nice one, Venu. I like the size of the owl in the frame with that background. For my taste, I'd take a little off the top to go to a 4x5 crop ratio, but that's just my taste. I usually find the 4x6 ratio too tall in a vertical format.
