Hi Devendra,
Very good capture!
Great colour, well composed.
Well done and thanks for sharing!

Hi Devandra:
What an interesting bird. The picture is a little grainy, but nonetheless, the detail is there, and the shot is well composed. I know you scan in your photos, so I can imagine the original must be very nice! Good job!
Today I move back to my homeland, Canada. After 11 years away, it will be great to be home!
All the best of the day my friend!
