 * Reason:flying shots so mitigates the slightly lower IQ than usual (IMO), shows the wing spurs and facial mask well which are both destinguishing features of these birds.

 * Support as nominator, and this is the crap being swooped out of me ... I left quickly after taking these ;-) --Benjamint 13:49, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Support - They are both good, i'd go with the first. I think the image quality is negligibly different from what we would expect. Good shot! --  Chil dzy  ¤  Ta lk  16:25, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose Its pretty soft. I'm not sure if it's motion blur or just plain out of focus. Your bravery is to be commended however. Noodle snacks (talk) 09:35, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Support An interesting bird in flight, I could overlook some quality problems for that one.--Mbz1 (talk) 02:45, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Support first photo. Not sharp, but high EV for threat response. Some leeway for a fast flight shot is reasonable IMO. The second photo doesn't have the same wow for me. -- Avenue (talk) 09:33, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Noodle --Muhammad (talk) 16:20, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
