  You said it, not surprisingly :) El Golli Mohamed (talk) 22:04, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

•  Comment The bokeh here is nicer but I agree, resolution is too low. Poco a poco (talk) 19:45, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

  They are feeding their chicks and if you have good wildlife photography ethics you can't get too close. I prefer to crop and have a lower resolution than to get closer and risk disturbing a brood. El Golli Mohamed (talk) 22:03, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

•  Comment It should be noted that there is no FP for this species El Golli Mohamed (talk) 23:45, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

• In FP, we are not looking for best of a species; that is VI. Although, it is useful to mention "no FPs". Lower techncail standards can be OK for rare/hard-to-get/once-only-opportunity shots. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:10, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

• Charlesjsharp's proposed image is a better candidate IMO. Zzzs (talk) 03:24, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

  Charles's photo doesn't reflect the true colors of the bird. His white balance is really weird El Golli Mohamed (talk) 10:34, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

  Any WB changes could be made before (or after) my image was nominated for FP. We are assessing the nominated image on this page. Charlesjsharp (talk) 14:02, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

•  Oppose As said above, res is too low, the fly helps but bee-eathers have often something in the mouth) --Poco a poco (talk) 09:52, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

•  Weak support Wow doesn't replace the low res and size, but good enough (I still think Charles' image would be better if he corrects the WB). --Zzzs (talk) 14:19, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
•  Oppose Very nice and beautiful scene. But the very low resolution is not what a expect for an excellent image. --August Geyler (talk) 16:01, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
