Reason: Nice illustration which will hold its EV even if we get a live action non-CGI photo. Pretty bird which, at least from this illustration, beats the handsome fruiteater to the title. Might need straightening up a smidge and there are a couple of marks which some nice image wizard could take care of in two shakes of a fruiteater's tail. Go on, make me swoon over your seemingly effortless editing skills.
Articles in which this image appears: Red-banded fruiteater (I may sneak it into John Gerrard Keulemans as it is better than either of the illustrations in there at the moment ... and I have done so)

Comment I'm uncomfortable supporting a heavily modified image without the original being up as well, though it does look like the work was done quite well in this case (save the speck under the tail), though it has more extreme paper removal than normally done. That can be a good thing, though, for some forms of reuse. Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 15:10, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- @Adam Cuerden: I've uploaded a scanned copy from the only place I could find the original scanned online [1]; I don't know if that's the scan of the plate that was used originally; it probably was given the closeness in size and the rust spot; is that what you were looking for or have I missed the point?

  - That's perfect, thanks. Would be nice to have that as a separate file as well, but Support Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 04:41, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support A lovely rendering.I see the female is a Slytherin,whilst the male veers towards Gryffindor.A shame we don't see them eating the fruit,since that's the talent they're billed as having Lemon martini (talk) 22:47, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
