Info Grey herons are only visitors of Tiergarten Schönbrunn, they are not captive, have no bird banding and are using the rich feeding grounds all over the park, created by Isiwal - uploaded by Isiwal - nominated by Isiwal -- Isiwal (talk) 09:34, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Grey Herons are relatively easy to spot and to take pictures of; so for an FP I'd expect more of the wow factor. Now while the quality is quite good, I don't like the light and the background that much, sorry. --A.Savin 01:49, 18 November 2019 (UTC)- Support A. Savin has a point, but the quality is really very good indeed. Cmao20 (talk) 08:02, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support Like Cmao20, I find the quality and level of details very good. --Dinkum (talk) 12:38, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support Crisp sharp. --Palauenc05 (talk) 13:08, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose The photo might be good for illustration of the mimicry ability, but for the FP I would expect more contrasting background. I agree with A.Savin. — Draceane talkcontrib. 15:45, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

- Support - I looked at a few of the existing FPs of this species, and this photo is toward the better side of the ones that show the bird's entire body. I particularly like the sharpness of its legs and feet. I find the background fine, too. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:07, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
Neutral Per the opposers above but still a nice shot Poco a poco (talk) 20:09, 18 November 2019 (UTC)- Support --The Cosmonaut (talk) 22:55, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

- Support Both pro and contra arguments are good, but looking again and again at it I really like it, espec. when viewing it at full size. --Aristeas (talk) 11:05, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support --Famberhorst (talk) 15:59, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose Yes, very good quality. But per others due to the background, sorry. --Hockei (talk) 19:51, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose after looking at existing FP-s of Ardea cinerea, sorry. --Ivar (talk) 16:07, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support I think the background shows well why a heron has such colors - it nearly blends in with its environment. --Podzemnik (talk) 20:08, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support Daniel Case (talk) 03:09, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support --Ermell (talk) 23:02, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
