- Support Excellent image quality. Composition is fine - it would be ideal, of course, if it was focus-bracketed so that all five owls were in sharp focus, but that would be asking too much. Regarding EV, File:Burrowing Owl 4354.jpg seems to do a better job of showing burrowing owl's talons etc but this picture illustrates the diversity in appearance of burrowing owls and it seems they live in burrows in the grass too.

- Weak Support Purpy Pupple's criticism in mind, it's as good as it can be without all owls in focus. Cat-fivetc ---- 06:51, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
- Neutral It's a frustrating image for me. Really neat subject matter, but really awkwardly cropped (is it tight? I can't tell), and way too much foreground. But it's also an incredible shot. – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 05:46, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
- Support great quality, superb composition. It already had my vote at POTY round 1. --A.Savin (talk) 10:47, 26 February 2013 (UTC)
