Hello all, and welcome to the Bird Photography Contest! I doubt there is much to explain about this - just find yourself a bird, be it a pet budgerigar or a penguin, point, and shoot. Not always quite as easy as that, so I'll be sure to give you a plenty of time.

Rules
1. Submit your OWN work only. Plagiarism will result in immediate disqualification.
2. Up to three (3) entries per participant allowed. Each entry is to be posted separately.
3. Everything must be uploaded on Elftown.

Judging & prizes
There will be four winners: first, second and third place by poll, as well as a host's favourite. Winners get a badge, and there is also one for participants. <URL:stuff/birdphotoparticipant.png>

Deadline is December 22nd, 2008.

3rd place: no. 33 by [BinaryPhoenix]
2nd place: no. 10 by [Viking]
1st place: no. 29 by [Kuruni]
host's favourite: no. 39 by [Mirime]

Congrats!
