  • Support Great image, like the colours of the background too. Fallschirmjäger  23:09, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would definitely crop a bit from the left to center the bird. Something like 2300px total width looked fine on my PC. And I suggest doing it now as FPs are so hard to edit after they are promoted. Materialscientist (talk) 10:46, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Very nice. I would also agree with a slightly tighter crop, given that the habitat in the background is not in focus anyway. --Elekhh (talk) 00:12, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. I wouldn't object to a crop, but I don't think it's completely necessary. What an ugly creature. J Milburn (talk) 10:55, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support either. Excellent, what a bird! TehGrauniad (talk) 19:28, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Oppose The turkey's right leg borders have visible CA/jpg compression. Also its feathers in the back look like they were copy and pasted from another image (see the borders).-- Someone35  12:56, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I think you might need to look up what both CA and jpeg compression look like. JJ Harrison (talk) 11:21, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The tail looks like you pasted it from another image-- Someone35  14:43, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Do you believe the photo was doctored? It seems fairly clear that the border you are referring to is between the wing's edge and the body. Naturally, there will be a discontinuity in the coloration. Fallingmasonry (talk) 21:13, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say that, I said how it looks like-- Someone35  07:10, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
