  • This is missing a propper ID, and the caption in carpenter bee is pretty weak Carpenter bees have large compound eyes, yeah, so do lots of insects. --Dschwen 19:03, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • ID is as good as you can get. And since this is a head shot, I don't see the importance of requiring the species id as well. --Muhammad(talk) 23:22, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • What do you mean as good as you can get?! I got a better ID on mine. --Dschwen 01:30, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
        • Probably because it is not an African species. --Muhammad(talk) 02:42, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
          • So? Do you have at least a couple more shots of the whole bee? --Dschwen 09:52, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
            • I have but they are not FP quality. --Muhammad(talk) 12:24, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
              • Did you upload them? --Dschwen 16:14, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
                • Not yet. I have better full body quality images of other carpenter bee species which I am hoping to upload. --Muhammad(talk) 18:06, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
