Original – Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea), Pak Thale, Ban Laem, Phetchaburi, Thailand

Reason: Clear image, free license. I just moved this from lower in the article to lead, this is clearer than the previous lead image and as the lead it gets higher EV.
Articles in which this image appears: Grey Heron just moved up to lead but was already in the article, and Arrocampo Reservoir

Support per nom. But, stable lead image is only a weak sufficient condition for EV in my view. JJ Harrison (talk) 23:47, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support Appears to be the best picture available of the species... ~~But, I must say, the technical quality could be higher.~~ Dusty777 01:14, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Dusty777, what's your concern about technical quality? Pine^✉ 08:09, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hrmm... To be honest, I don't remember what I saw... Looking at the picture again, it looks like the technical quality is excellent. I have no idea what I saw. Dusty777 02:45, 8 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
