•  Info The Lammergeier or Bearded Vulture, Gypaetus barbatus ("Bearded Vulture-Eagle"), is an Old World vulture, the only member of the genus Gypaetus. There are only 250 breeding pairs left in Europe!
•  Support I like how the color of the rock harmonizes with the volture. He look powerful and statuesque. --Richard Bartz 19:25, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
•  Support A great picture from my favorite photographer! --Lucas Löffler 19:49, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

•  Neutral Very very good photo, but I find it oversaturated. Thus, it looks a little unnatural to me. -- Slaunger 15:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

   Support Thank you, Richard, for providing further valuable input to the special circumstances. I take your word that the image is not colour-corrected. Evidently it is my eyes, which need desaturation and not the photo. -- Slaunger 08:54, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

• You are welcome :) --Richard Bartz 19:59, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

•  Comment Location information would be nice. Lycaon 17:29, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

• Done --Richard Bartz 18:02, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

• Actually, I meant which Zoo (probably the Alpenzoo in Innsbruck?), as in the area indicated no confirmed observations were made since 12-06-2005 ([1]). Lycaon 19:16, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

• How I can convert googlemaps coordinates into the template properly ? I had it once but deleted the link, any help? Or better, can you do it for, please? It was at Alpenzoo at 47.282039, 11.398079. --Richard Bartz 19:28, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

•  Oppose This looks oversaturated to me. That's just not needed for an otherwise good picture. -- Ram-Man 01:49, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

• The bearded volture is very colorful. If you look at the exif data you will see that the picture was taken at 9.15 in the morning, where you have a very special and nice light. For this picture i woke up at 5.00 in the morning and did a 150km drive to get it. There was a comment of a other user which said it looks unnatural, i agree with that because when did you was in the mountains above 1000m and was watching/photographing birds at sunrise? . For me this picture is very special and its the first time i disagree on a vote because its not colorcorrected. --Richard Bartz 08:43, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
  •  Support I'll trust you on this one. Thanks for the explanation. -- Ram-Man 21:56, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
