  • Oppose. I'm sorry to do this; the image has a really nice composition and great colours, but I'm not sure it shows the distinguishing features of the species as well as it could. This is a familiar species to many, and so I think we can afford to be particularly discerning. Josh Milburn (talk) 07:49, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
