After much, much deliberation we are excited to announce the winner of our Green&Blue #GardenBirdPics photo competition. And what a tough job it was judging, so tough we had to call in expert help from a panel of judges, all with strong opinions about birds and photography. You can meet our judging panel here. First, let us bring you the shortlist, these were the entries that progressed to our judges to choose their eventual winner.
We're sure you'll agree, a tough choice and some amazing photographs entered. You can see the full album of entries on our facebook page here. And so, without further ado. The Judges decision, with this image receiving top marks from 2 of our panel, our congratulations go to Andrew Watkins for "Early morning Pheasant battle in the frost.
Andrew says " 'Our' resident Pheasant "Pecker' ( as named by our daughter) is in the air seeing off a competitor." Congratulations Andrew, winner of a Green&Blue seed feeder and some hand blended seed from our friends at Boxwild.
We'd love to know, in the comments below, which would have been your winner, did we get it right? Header photo on this post was taken by the brilliant Benn of Gokotta Film.
