Original – The Crested Duck (Lophonetta specularioides) is a species of duck native to South America, the only member of the monotypic genus Lophonetta.

Reason: Good head portrait and striking image. Looking at Commons:Category:Lophonetta specularioides, best image we have of this duck, by far.

- Notice that there are already FPs of birds showing only the head, see Wikipedia:Featured pictures/Animals/Birds and specifically File:House sparrow portrait.jpg, File:Albatros fuligineux.jpg and File:Rooster portrait2.jpg. Tomer T (talk) 13:23, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: Shallow depth of field, poor lighting, and too tight crop. Julia\^talk 16:52, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Oppose- If this image had more of a contrast between the duck and the background, this would be a great image. Gupdoo3 (talk) 16:15, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
