Hasn’t it already been resolved?
Yes the appeal has been resolved. Niantic has asked us to let them know when the appeals reviewers give the wrong result, and the original poster thought this was an incorrect decision. Aaron was kind enough to explain why this animal made this photo ineligible, and backed up the appeal decision. So the original question has been resolved. But we rarely get a chance to joke around with staff, so some people were continuing the conversation, just for fun.

I already did, but it sucks that I’ve wasted a nomination and an appeal on something that should’ve been easily accepted in the first place (the initial nomination was rejected due to “mismatched location”, even though the location was correct).
@NianticAaron so this little birdie in the picture is to much in focus?
The rules has otherwise been correctly, it’s a living animal in the picture - and I haven’t thought about it again until I read this thread.
And yes, I know I haven’t resubmitted yet either.

I think that was an issue very early on with appeal reviewers… i dont think its like that now
Might be, I don’t remember when I appealed this one, even if the nomination it self is old.
Anyhow, I just need to take the walk and re-nominate it again 
(and watch out for the birds 
)
