Manisha Gupta has titled this pic clicked in Milwaukee, USA: Angry Bird.

"I got my husband's camera for the very first time in my hands in a park and this bird was just waiting for me. I took so many shots of this bird. It was giving her best poses just like a model. But this is my most favorite shot because it is expressive," she says.
