Support - This picture is not quite on the level of pictures of birds in which every feather is clearly and separately visible, but it's still quite good. Nice facial expression, too. And I still don't prefer this degree of background blurring for a picture like this, but if you're going to use it, this is pretty good. So overall, I think this is quite clearly within the range of pictures that deserve a feature. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:22, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The blurred trunk in the background ruins this a bit overall for me. INeverCry 07:20, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- @INeverCry: Would a crop work? 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 15:51, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I tried to crop tighter. It's better now? 😄 ArionEstar 😜 (talk) 17:35, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If you'd like to address INeverCry's objection, you'd have to crop out the tree that's highly blurred in the background. I'd strongly recommend cropping a bit from the top, too, as there is a distracting bit of a blurred branch there now. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:50, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I find this an improvement. I think there's a possibility that someone may object that the picture is too small now, though, which would mean that, as we New Yorkers say, "You can't win from losing". -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:24, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like this a bit better. The focus should've been closer in on the bird from the start, rather than taking in so much of the surrounding branches and foliage, but that's being a bit of a "Monday morning quarterback", as we Nevadans say... INeverCry 21:19, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support Love the colors and I can put up with the noise. I believe the expression is "you can't win for losing"; the odd grammar reflects it being a calque of the Yiddish expression. Daniel Case (talk) 23:37, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per Daniel. --Johann Jaritz (talk) 05:53, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support. The colours are nice, and this crop is better. BTW the image description should include the species name. —Bruce1ee^talk 07:40, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
