Set up your feeders and take your camera outside, because it’s time for the Birds & Blooms Hummingbird Photo Contest.

Please submit only one photo.

Share the story behind the shot, including the season, the species (if you know it), where it was taken, what type of camera you used, and what makes this photo so special.

Judging: All entries must meet the Contest requirements. A panel of Birds & Blooms staff members will review and select winners based on the following criteria
– Originality: 20%
– Quality 60%
– Personality 20%
In the event of a tie, the highest score in the Personality criterion will break the tie. The winners may have their submissions posted on Birds & Blooms’ website and in other media.
