CONTEST RESULTS!!

This was a hard contest to judge, the submissions were all excellent! Before I announce the winners, I want to thank my two judges, Katherine Wolfthal of Weston, Massachusettes and Shelly Ducharme of Auburn, Alabama. Although I selected the finalist photos, the two of them had final say over the winners, which they judged blindly, with no knowledge of the winning photographers. Thanks, you two. You're the best!

And now, the WINNER, ANNE MIDDLETON, from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, for her stunning photo of a young Northern Flicker being fed by a parent:

Anne, your copy of "Your Backyard Wildlife Year," by Marcus Schneck, will be on its way to you shortly. Congratulations!

And the three runners up, in no particular order: CAROL WALLACE, for her gorgeous photo of a summertime pollinator. Visit the Suite 101 Gardening Community (click on the "community" tab) to read more about Carol and her gardening work!:

And the other two runners-up are BOTH from photographer RICK DICKSON, from Pennsylvania, for his photos of a bluebird (at nestbox) and adult/juvenila blue jays at lesson time! Rick, this is the second time you've been a runner-up at the photo contest. Keep submitting, we love your work!

The next photo contest will probably be in the winter. Brush up now, I look forward to seeing what you come up with! Thanks to all the participants, and, again, a special thanks to the winners and the judges.
