•  Support The hoopoe seems really to be posing in this photo, as the Italian filename says. ;–) And I love the pose, the simple and clear composition and how the sidelight emphasizes the feathers. Yes, big parts of the plumage are in shadow, but it’s a soft shadow and it makes the hoopoe stand out against the bright background. Good image quality, maybe a little bit noise in the shadows, but I prefer this to photos where strong noise reduction wipes out details or makes them look artificial. -- Aristeas (talk) 19:12, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

•  Support Outstanding composition. Noise is not significant IMO. Cmao20 (talk) 21:15, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
•  Support A little bit noisy and harsh, but the image of the Upupa is lovely. Furthermore, I would like to point out that it is a very sensitive bird and difficult to photograph, because it is always agitated and moving. Terragio67 (talk) 21:50, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

  (It depends, in some countries they are easy to find, don't move much and are easily approached) -- Giles Laurent (talk) 23:55, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
