- Weak support; it's a little small, but that's made up for by the fact that it's not the kind of bird you'd see in your back garden. J Milburn (talk) 12:14, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose From what I understand photographing birds on Galapagos is dead easy in many cases, so I don't think this quality level is acceptable. flickr has quite a number of superior CC-BY-SA images available. Noodle snacks (talk) 23:14, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I didn't say it was hard to take a photograph of the subject, it is rare to go to the Galapagos Islands though. But thank you for not holding back. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:27, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'd love to go myself someday. Noodle snacks (talk) 10:39, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
