Original – Musk Duck (Biziura lobata) male, Sandford, Tasmania, Australia

Alt-1 Crop

Alt-2 showing more plumage detail.

Reason: A good match for the female Musk Duck which passed FPC recently. The male has been much more coy, requiring four attempts.

~~Conditional~~ support I would prefer a top crop. Brandmeister t 00:12, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment -- I'd support a bit of a crop; right now there's too much background, not enough bird. Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:55, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment While the bill lobe is shown nicely in your capture, I'm a little disappointed that neither of your images (male or female) gives as much plumage detail as the Alt by Mdekool (which has other minor problems, but I feel a good overall production for this species should be possible).

Weak support -- Agree with PLW2 that detail is lacking on the feathers (didn't consider it before). Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:57, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support Alt2 Though I don't mind the others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pteronura brasiliensis (talk • contribs) 00:19, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
