This absolute beauty Suhas. Liked the shapes formed by the motion in the wings. U've managed to capture 2 positions of wings' fluttering - one forward, down & the other spread out towards top which is very beautiful. Nice use of flash.
How I wish the eyes were visible. And if the head & beak were freezed (still & clear) it might have been perfect. But I understand that these are too much to ask for in wild.
Overall, I liked this image a lot.

I really like the wings ghosting here. In a low light situations we tend to get ones like this. I would have preferred the head turn here.

Colors and blurred wings gives this image a poetic feel Suhas - nice try here. Wel defined branch however does not seem to gel well with the rest of the frame - I don't think you could have done anything different in this case however. We can't get everything the way we want in nature.
