  • Conditional Support if both comments are addressed. Great picture, but there needs to be some clarification on the name. Is the frog Pelophylax kl. esculentus as in the article or Rana esculenta as in the caption? Is there an officially accepted name for this frog? I also believe the plant that the frog is sitting on should be linked if it is to be mentioned, Nymphaea should do if I'm correct. Mattximus ( talk) 21:37, 8 August 2013 (UTC) reply
    • I made the link. Regarding the other question, the infobox in the article says that these names are synonyms. Tomer T ( talk) 09:41, 9 August 2013 (UTC) reply
      • In this case I would stick with Edible Frog (Pelophylax kl. esculentus) as the name of the frog in the caption. I believe the synonym used here Rana esculenta is outdated. Mattximus ( talk) 15:57, 18 August 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Question, leaning support: what are those blurred spots behind the frog? —  Crisco 1492 ( talk) 01:49, 18 August 2013 (UTC) reply
    • I presume you mean the brighter ones? Pretty sure they're just light reflecting off water drops. You can see some of that in the focused area. Could be a bit of light-coloured dirt, though. Adam Cuerden ( talk) 10:18, 18 August 2013 (UTC) reply
