I'm not sure if the head is distinctive enough to be significant in its own right here. The image is in the description section, but the only description of the head is that there is a "large head and bill. It has [...] an orange or pink bill with a white or brown nail (hard horny material at tip of upper mandible)" This may be one of those images that is rightfully an FP on Commons, but which doesn't add enough here, but it is an excellent image, so. ..

- Thinking about it, I think the problem is A. the description doesn't describe other parts of the head, like the eyes, and B. the caption doesn't emphasise the points to note. I think this may be fixable. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 6.6% of all FPs} 16:12, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose agree with above, I don't see the EV of the head specifically, the current lead image is far more informative. Mattximus (talk) 21:43, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Question Should I oppose this because the background is very blurry and therefore over-processed? JJ Harrison (talk) 22:53, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- No. The background blur is the natural consequence of using a long lens on a DSLR, rather than anything that happened in postprocessing. With a 400mm lens, even f/10 won't make the background sharp. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:18, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
