Support - great photo! Good clarity and exposure and represents the subject well.Jimerb (talk) 19:17, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Support per Jimerb. Two areas for improvement:

the DOF is too wide, causing the background to have too much detail and therefore distracting from the subject, and
the leaves on the ground are too close a color to the birds to make the birds really stand out.

Those two things aside, it clearly meets criteria for FP. --Wingtipvorte^X PTT ∅ 21:31, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Great resolution. ComputerJA (talk) 07:04, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Overzealous noise reduction, or some other process has left barely any fine detail. I suspect the saturation has been messed with too, but that is hard to prove/disprove. JJ Harrison (talk) 23:28, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
