I agree with Duncan, the shot is really well composed. The powerline also words as an interesting framing device.

Is it sitting on an electric pole ? ayyo paapa. Its a very scary memory.. Indian Crows used to die out on such heavy voltage/current electric wires, I remember reading some insulatin in their feet but not sure on how it jerks.. after all its a good bird! Nice one.. hasiru giLi.. :-)
