Black Currawong (Strepera fuliginosa)

Replacement

Reason: I've since learned that a view of the belly is important when differentiating between the Black Currawong and the Tasmanian subspecies of the Pied Currawong. The tree is arguably more natural than the rock too.

- If one stops down (further, already at f/5.6), then the background becomes distracting and the shutter speed begins to reduce the probability of a sharp shot. Noodle snacks (talk) 00:41, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
D&R -- pity about the tail, but the replacement has better composition, and the pose gives a better sense of the proportions of the bird and shows its feet better. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 21:20, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
