Dear A/Prof. Marj Kibby,

I think you may have mistakenly claimed the picture of noisy miners attacking a dove as your own on wikipedia. I have written to Wiki to inform them that I am the rightful owner of this picture. May you enjoy birding.

The image is a composite of images sent to me, I took them at their word that they were the photographer and were able to give permission for them to be modified and uploaded, I support its speedy deletion.

By the way, it is very bad form to 'out' someone on a public forum where pseudonyms are used.
