Comment The lighting gives the feathers a weird look. [1] --Muhammad(talk) 08:06, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support alt. I can confirm that this is indeed what they look like - a good image. Just be thankful there isn't a featured sound nomination for this animal! Mostlyharmless (talk) 08:39, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support original is my preferred composition but either one for me if consensus goes the other way--Childzy ¤ Talk 16:28, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support either. Weird looking thing. Whichever is promoted should be used as the lead image. J Milburn (talk) 18:11, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose original Agree with Muhammad on the strange lighting and colours. Was this taken with flash? Oppose alt per same reason, and less successful composition. Elekhh (talk) 00:50, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
