Original – Sunset lorikeet
Reason
Quality lead image, represents the subject well. If you are questioning the saturation, keep in mind this isn't unusual, these birds are very colorful [1], [2], [3]. Also this was shot using flash which pretty much removes the background.

  • Oppose From looking at other photos of this species online, I think that the use of flash has slightly missrepresented the colours. It has also made the photo somewhat unpleasant on the eye. As such, I don't think this meets the high standards set by other FP level photos of birds. Nick-D (talk) 08:58, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I am wary of promoting zoo animals as their appearance may not mirror wild birds. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:52, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose The plumage of this parrot is iridescent and so the the flash misrepresents the subject. JJ Harrison (talk) 00:31, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
