  • Neutral - It's a nice picture, but the cropping (not sure whether it was cropped) seems a little too tight for me. Arctic Kangaroo ( ) 09:00, 11 June 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Support Crop doesn't bother me, especially at full size. I get the impression the worm is about to perform surprise sutemi-waza on that poor bird. – Kerαunoςcopia gala xies 00:02, 12 June 2013 (UTC) reply

That's an unfair reason to half-support someone's image, which should stand of its own accord as it would on its own article. – Kerαunoςcopia gala xies 14:57, 12 June 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Weak oppose. Uninspiring crop and a very common bird, so definitely replaceable. Good quality and a decent pose, though. The maggot adds EV. J Milburn ( talk) 15:11, 12 June 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Support I partially agree with Milburn, but there's only so much you can do and keep the image encyclopedic - too dramatic, and you need another image to show key features. So I'm fine with this. Adam Cuerden ( talk) 06:55, 20 June 2013 (UTC) reply
