The Lammergeier or Bearded Vulture, Gypaetus barbatus ("Bearded Vulture-Eagle"), is an Old World vulture, the only member of the genus Gypaetus.Alternative1 with more wing detail
Support Alternative 1 only. Far more compelling at fullsize, lighting is better (especially on top of the head), and it's got a tail! --jjron (talk) 11:55, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support original. The alternative is nice, but it's stuck on an encyclopaedic no man's land imho. If we had one that was up in the air soaring, I would support, because that gives people a great opportunity to identify them in the wild. This one is a very nice photograph (maybe lighten the feet a bit). Gotta stick to my guns. ;) I know there is another FP on commons, which I'll pre-emptively weak oppose for showing only part of the animal (caution: battle ground ahead).

Pre-emptive oppose per Samsara. Versions here are far better. ;-) BTW, isn't the Original in more of a no man's land with that odd missing tail? --jjron (talk) 13:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support alternative - Far more interesting than the original, showing the tail ad wings. I would give a full support to a larger file and a less tight crop -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 15:22, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support alternative1 - a much more dynamic shot, illustrating just as much of the bird. I only wish it was oriented with the horizontal as the long axis, but still quite deserving. Matt Deres (talk) 00:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have to say the same as Julian: Strong support original, weak support alternative They're both amazing pictures, but the first one is superior, in my opinion. нмŵוτнτ02:01, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
