The result was '''Delete.

This seems like a hoax to me after searching a few databases for this species of bird, so delete per WP:HOAX. Gary King ( talk ) 05:45, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Hoax. Recommend CSD instead of AfD. Thanks. HG | Talk 06:05, 9 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - was about to CSD it myself but I checked Hoax and it specifically says a hoax is not a CSD candidate (unfortunately). Frank  |  talk  12:08, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Understandable, though, as in some cases editors might think something is a hoax when in fact it's not. Gary King ( talk ) 14:47, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete as hoax. Edward321 (talk) 14:41, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, definite hoax. Agreed that it's not quite blatant enough to be a comfortable WP:CSD speedy-delete, but it's still pretty silly. ~ mazca  t 19:53, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
