Hey gang!

The time has come! The votes are in, the scores are tabulated, and the ritual combat among the judges has ended. The competition was fierce, and we had so many great entries that we broke them down into 4 groups. Mammals, Birds, Bugs, and Everything Else. Here are your top 5 in each category, and each winner will receive a 3 Month PFM for themselves or a friend:

The credit for that one goes to an awesome photographer/best friend with some sweet gear that he let me use. Shout out to Nick Stroot! You can look him up on eBird.

It is an absolutely spectacular website if you enjoy birding/bird photography. I use it all the time!
