Rufescent tiger heron
[edit]
- ... that it takes five years for young rufescent tiger herons to acquire adult plumage?
- ALT1:... that the rufescent tiger heron is crepuscular—that is, it hunts primarily at dusk and dawn?
- ALT2:... that, unlike most herons, the rufescent tiger heron has no powder down feathers on its back?

MeegsC, it has been over three weeks without a QPQ being supplied. We can wait another week or so, but I can't see this remaining open past a month without you having started one by then. I hope to see a response from you before then. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:07, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset:: I should know better than to queue one of these right before leaving on tour! :P Will sort something out this week... MeegsC (talk) 22:13, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks. We'll call for a reviewer as soon as it's set. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:23, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
@BlueMoonset: I've reviewed Noah Galloway. MeegsC (talk) 15:03, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
Good to go with original hook or ALT1. New enough when nominated, long enough, neutral, sourced, not plagiarized (ran Dup Detector or did cursory check on several sources, and am taking the rest on good faith),- hook < 200, hook accurate & cited (except I'm not sure about ALT2; you say "unlike most herons" in ALT2, and the text says "unlike most tiger herons"; also, while the cited source doesn't say the bird has "powder down feathers" it doesn't explicitly mention their absence, either), hook interesting, hook not about a human, qpq done, image free (CC, not fair use), used in article, & looks good. --Rosekelleher (talk) 22:41, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
