Original - Purple Swamphen (Porphyrio porphyrio) subsp. poliocephalus, Bueng Boraphet, Phra Non, Nakhon Sawan, Thailand

existing fp - not for voting

Reason: We have a purple swamphen FP, but a different subspecies and the plumage is quite different. It has dinner in it's mouth too.

Comment: That's a very ugly animal, and the shellfish in the mouth is a nice touch. Where's the other FP? J Milburn (talk) 10:16, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    - Yeah, quite right. I don't see how it should affect this nomination though. JJ Harrison (talk) 22:56, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
