•  Comment I'd support this one. – You've opposed imgages in the past where the bird is looking away from the viewer… --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:31, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Support The one Frank links to is nice and I would support but this one is sharper and matches well with your existing FP of the blue tailed bee eater promoted earlier this month Cmao20 (talk) 13:49, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Support --Princess Rosalina 💄 451871 13:50, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Qualified support Some of the feathers look a little weird, and there's a slight ring on some of the ones in back. But given the shutter speed, focal length and ISO involved, this looks like it was a tough picture to take, one of the ones where 90% of the achievement was getting it at all so I feel these things can easily be forgiven.

•  Support Per Cmao20 and Daniel Case. --Aristeas (talk) 08:23, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose several overexposed areas, lacks of fine details unsuccessfully compensed by sharpening (=oversharpening). This image is not among the finest of Commons, e.g. compare to this photo of a bird within the same genus (sise, sharpening, fine detail, post processing, exposition...). A valuable image yes, a QI this is questionable, a FP absolutely not IMO. Christian Ferrer ^(talk) 06:27, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

• I agree with Christian, it's overcooked and details in some areas are gone due to overexposure. That magic AI sharpening SW cannot save everything... Poco a poco (talk) 18:33, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Oppose I agree, too, especially as this bird is not tiny (27–29 cm per w:European bee-eater). It's a good enough photo that opposing is holding it to a very high level, but that's quite reasonable for FPC. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:33, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Oppose per Christian. --Ivar (talk) 13:51, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Support --Uoaei1 (talk) 12:00, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose per others -- Colin (talk) 19:15, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
•  Oppose I'd still support the other one. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:33, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
