- Oppose - good photo, however it is a bit low resolution and that twig is a bit obstructing the subject. ///EuroCarGT 22:56, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
- Oppose - It's a very nice photo, but it does not have the minimum number of pixels. CorinneSD (talk) 20:14, 7 December 2014 (UTC) CorinneSD (talk) 22:08, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
- Comment - a very cute photo, but it is only 1,922 × 1,373 pixels, and the requirement are minimum 1500px X 1500px. Hafspajen (talk) 20:38, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
- Comment - I have uploaded a higher resolution version of this file. It is now 2,311 × 1,651 pixels. Blalonde (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 01:05, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- Comment - What are the rules? I'm sure that alternatives must be added, rather than an overwrite of the file, especially if it isn't actually just a bigger picture, but a looser crop. They're not the same thing. 129.234.0.22 (talk) 10:55, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- In cases where the original file is radically insufficient and the new version is obviously superior, overwriting the file isn't a big issue. Here, it's not likely to pass with either version. 24.222.214.125 (talk) 21:03, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

- Oppose-- Hey, whats that purple thing? --The Herald : here I am 14:23, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
- Comment - I also noticed the purple coloring of the feathers on the bird at the right. It's actually stylish. Maybe the bird dyed its feathers to appear "cool". Seriously, though, I don't know whether that is the real color of the bird's feathers or whether it is a result of lighting or technical issues. Either way, I still like this image.
