Original – White stork (Ciconia ciconia) in flight with a transmitter; carrying plastic to make its nest.

Reason: High quality image. FP on Commons. This, like most flight images, is not in the infobox but has high EV. It shows a bird carrying a transmitter to aid conservation work in Spain. The bird is carrying discarded plastic to use in building its nest.

So, is this Merops ciconia ?? ;-) --Janke | Talk 17:01, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support. High EV. I corrected the article it appears in from Blue-tailed bee-eater to White stork. —Bruce1ee ^talk 10:15, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Feels like it could really benefit articles on transmitters and animal tracking and so on too. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.1% of all FPs} 16:35, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I've added this to wildlife radio telemetry. Also, I support per Adam Cuerden--the value might be greater in that article than in the species article (though the use of plastic for nest-building is also interesting). blameless 02:09, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
