- Reason
- As I was leaving for a day's photography, I spotted a Diamond Firetail drinking from a puddle on the other side of my hire car. I managed to get my camera out without flushing it, but just as I had the camera pointing at it around the car. I waited in the car for quite a while before setting off. I was a little annoyed that I'd wasted valuable haze-free morning, but the delay turned out to be lucky - this eagle was waiting just outside the driveway, in a tree, where I was staying.

- Support as nominator --JJ Harrison (talk) 10:31, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
* Support. Good shot. Clegs (talk) 10:37, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
- Neutral. The beak didn't bug me at first, but is bugging me more and more. Clegs (talk) 08:32, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose The beak is one solid blown highlight. Dusty777 (talk) 02:10, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- Fixed, not that it made an appreciable difference. JJ Harrison (talk) 04:46, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- Weak support -- I like the bird but that beak is bothering me. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:03, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose It's another Australia picture. Too many Australia pictures on the front page. Dr. Morbius (talk) 18:25, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
- That's not one of the criteria. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:46, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
- Weak oppose That upshoot of the tree branch on the left-hand side spoils the photo for me -- crowds and draws my eye away from the subject. —Eustress talk 07:05, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
Not Promoted --Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 14:23, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
