Color, action, and nature are reflected in this photograph of a displaying Ring-necked Pheasant – is it a photo contest contender in the Birds category?

Now you can enter the National Wildlife Federation Photo Contest – through March 29th – so select your very best bird photos and give this prestigious photo contest a try. Unique among the photo contests announced for 2020, in addition to entering bird photos you can submit photos of a variety of animals, so enjoy that option too. In fact, there is a category for Landscapes & Plants, and another for People in Nature; plus a category for photos taken with a cellphone or tablet.

Nine photo contest categories include Birds, Mammals, Other Wildlife, “Baby Animals,” Landscapes & Plants, People in Nature, Mobile, and the Youth Category for photographers aged 13 to 17. The NWF Photo Contest judges “are looking for striking color and black-and-white images of nature – on land, in the air, and beneath the water’s surface – from anywhere in the world. These images may show animal behavior, portraits of wildlife in natural habitats, plant life, natural landscapes, or people interacting with nature.”
