  • Oppose Sorry, I don't think this is the most encyclopedic pose for a species named for the colour of it's breast. In fact, I think the previous taxobox image was probably better in the taxobox. --99of9 (talk) 11:36, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I've got one of the front, but I think the tail is missing. JJ Harrison (talk) 08:38, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Glad it wasn't called the red ass bird. Saffron Blaze (talk) 16:18, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Fully agree with 99of9. --Elekhh (talk) 23:37, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose agreeing with 99of9 and Elkhh. Pine (was GreenPine) talk 09:10, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I think the pose is really good, there’ll always be a compromise with pose as you can’t see the whole of the animal in one photo. Just because it's called a white-breasted whatever doesn't mean that I want to see only a picture of it's breast. There is a shallow depth of field (if that’s what it’s called), but I think it meets the 8 criteria. TehGrauniad (talk) 14:44, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per 99of9. It's a great picture though -- I'd probably support it if the article were longer and it wasn't in the taxobox. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 15:03, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Have to agree with the consensus from 99of9. It's a stunning image visually but just a shame it's not from the front otherwise I'd support 100%. Regards, Fallschirmjäger  18:18, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
