- Support either, prefer Original – not sure we need both as FP. Bammesk (talk) 17:12, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- The second picture displays a behavior that is note often photographed : we can see that while the bird is flying away from the flower in the background, it is looking at the flower on the right to choose it before landing on it. In my opinion this has interesting educational value. As for the first picture, I’ve seen no other photography on the internet showcasing fully the yellow part of this bird (only drawn illustrations in books) as this bird is usually only photographed in static position with wings closed. So I think both pictures are FP worthy for different reasons — Giles Laurent (talk) 18:21, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
