  • Support. Slightly weak EV given the articles it's in, but very nice capture. That's a flexible fly. Is it hanging from the branch by one leg? Diliff | (Talk) (Contribs) 14:51, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yeah. I saw it flying and then it grabbed onto the branch, ate its meal, and climbed onto the branch. --Muhammad(talk) 15:52, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per above - pretty much what I was going to say. It looks to have very good balance actually. The most interesting bug shot for some time. Appears to be a bit of muck in that bottom left corner just below the main action that could maybe be cleaned up. --jjron (talk) 15:01, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support excellent ev of the insect feeding. Wish we had more of these. Good capture. Durova298 16:15, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support, though a little more blown across the body than is ideal. Noodle snacks (talk) 04:51, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support High enough quality to be FP on it's own, the feeding only adds additional EV. Perhaps it's worth adding to a more general article from List of feeding behaviours? Staxringold talkcontribs 14:15, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
