Spotted some time back. The bird was at a distance, and the images are cropped.

Great capture #1 . Not sure what level of cropping is done but do check if some shadow details can be recovered around the neck area (right side) where highlights are a bit off...IMHO. TFS.

Nice shot esp. BIF

Many thanks for your appreciation.

@manindra_m: While the image is cropped, it is not too much. Because of the distance, the focus was a bit soft, maybe due to the atmospheric haze, so I refrained from cropping more. I will re-try the processing and see if the image can be improved.

The bird was given the wrong ID. Sorry for the error.
Modified the "Subject" to read "Black shouldered kite", instead of "Grey shouldered kite".
