Show me your photos of birds with their feathers puffed up or fluffed out. This is known as piloerection and can be done for various reasons such as to regulate body temperature, when feeling threatened or sick. Photos can show any kind of bird with their feathers fluffed out. I cannot wait to see all your photos.
Every photo submitted will be available for the crowd to rate once the submissions period has ended. You can see all the images uploaded to a contest, but will need to rate them to see how they’re ranked once the rating period begins.
Some contests on Photocrowd also have a judge. After the submission period closes the judge chooses their favourite images and writes some image reviews. The crowd and judge results will be announced on the same day.
