  • Support as nominator --PERSIA ♠ 08:35, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support The bee is a small part of the image, but otherwise it meets my standards and is encyclopedic. upstateNYer 21:02, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose -- A little on the red side for me, and our current featured picture of a bee during pollination is much better. The EV could also be improved; note how the caption just says "a bee". Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:11, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Excellent shot. Clegs (talk) 21:14, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support a little blurry, but good behavioral shot. Pinetalk 08:53, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Great macro shot of a bee in its natural setting. Don't get yourself stung! -- King of ♠ 09:15, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I would prefer a tighter crop. Kaldari (talk) 06:31, 11 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Support per UpstateNYer. --Paolo Costa 18:50, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose until plant is identified. Papa Lima Whiskey 2 (talk) 19:33, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Excellent. O.J. (talk) 14:06, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Not that good of a shot, particularly in comparison to our other insect FPs. What species is this anyway? Makeemlighter (talk) 23:31, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not Promoted . Close, but 3 opposes to 5.5 support. --Julia\talk 22:35, 16 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
