  • Oppose, nothing particularly special here for me, the majesty of said animal is somewhat destroyed as it's so close to the ground. The ground also creates a distraction in terms of the similar colours. -- Phoenix2 (holla) 20:57, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose the tips of the wings are very motion blurred, given that this is a domesticated bird(as evidenced by the leash on its leg) a better shot could be made. (H) 19:31, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Oppose, nice picture, but the background is distracting. --Pixelface 17:17, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
