Support a highly valuable image present in 7 articles at this time. I find it very aesthetic as well. Elekhh (talk) 01:02, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Support temporary: This is definitely a good image and I support it until (if and when it happens) a better image in which all six legs is created. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 04:00, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Info - But the sixth leg is there! Please look on the right side of the animal, below the wing. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 19:22, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

But it is not so prominent. Anyway: my vote still a support.--Redtigerxyz ^Talk 09:12, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm just not sure, because it's not at all clear what it's feeding on. Can you identify it? Shoemaker's Holiday ^talk 03:14, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
