Original – Australian Reed-warbler (Acrocephalus australis), Jerrabomberra Wetlands, Canberra, Australia
Reason
This species is quite common in mainland wetlands, but has a tendency to cause a little excitement when found in Tasmania. It is usually found clinging to reeds, and is often partially obscured, making photography more challenging.

  • Weak oppose -- The reed looks too bright. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:52, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Blown out highlights on the left of the reed the warbler is standing on and maybe on the tail of the bird/nearby reed where the contrast between bird and reed is lost a bit. God EmperorTalk 00:49, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
