For this picture, we absolutely need a sense of scale. Scale bar would be ideal, but in image description would probably be ok. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 14:17, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The wingspan is about 25 cm. That's roughly the distance from the tip of your thumb to the tip of your little finger when you stretch your hand. Best wishes, --Quartl (talk) 16:49, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Many thanks for your effort, but the masking seems to be quite coarse especially near the body. --Quartl (talk) 11:18, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose whitened version, ~~waiting for some sort of scale indication before I vote on original.~~ Clegs (^{engage in rational discourse}) 08:14, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I put the scale information in the image description. The wingspan is the distance from one wingtip to the other. Best wishes, --Quartl (talk) 12:26, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
