- Support Please try to view this image not as one of our macro's where every feather is razor sharp, but as gestalt snapshot into the bird's behavior and unusual body structure.--HereToHelp 00:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support. The wing is badly out of focus, but I love the water droplets flying off the toes, and it's very encyclopedic per HereToHelp --ffroth 01:41, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

- Support. Great picture. --Carioca 04:49, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support per nom, though I'm waiting for complaints about size and DOF. --jjron 08:04, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Neutral, i'm not going to complain about the size or DOF, but i dislike the composition. The bird is located dead centre in the picture, and is "moving" out of the picture. --Aqwis 12:24, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support, as above. Interesting, despite people saying that it is not the best picture of the bird but a better picture of body structure & gestalt it is only being used in the article for the bird iself. Witty Lama 13:16, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
