Hello Ravi,
I had a great time working on this wonderful capture. I added a little level - Used specific USM on its head to make details stand out more - I added a little saturation and decreased the green dominant color by adding a little magenta. Finally, I selected the BG to remove a little noise (everything is little, lol). I hope that you'll like it but the original is still terrific :) Well done!

Hi Ravi
Altered the curves to lighten the image slightly, bringing in just a little more detail in the darker feathers of the Myna, then a slight sharpen in unsharp mask at an amount of 100, radius 0.3 and threshold 0 to bring a sharpness to the eye. Slight crop to bring him closer.
Hope you agree.

Cropping

Recropped as Pablo suggested. I cropped some of the empty space on the left to 'create' more space where the stork is facing. I also cropped a little on the top and bottom to keep the dimensions relatively unchanged.
