Including the Delta(1232) resonance in a third-order covariant chiral perturbation theory fit reproduces near-threshold pion photoproduction data across all charge channels far better than leaving it out.

abstract
The photon asymmetry in the reaction p(\vec{\gamma},\pi^{0})p close to threshold has been measured for the first time with the photon spectrometer TAPS using linearly polarized photons from the tagged-photon facility at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. The total and differential cross sections were also measured simultaneously with the photon asymmetry. This allowed determination of the S-wave and all three P-wave amplitudes. The low-energy theorems based on the parameter-free third-order calculations of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory for P1 and P2 agree with the experimental values.

Pion photoproduction off nucleons in covariant chiral perturbation theory
