This time of year, a lot of birds have laid their eggs, the chicks have been born and quickly grow to a stage where they are said to 'fledge' (just left the nest). I want to see pics of birds at this young stage, having just left the nest in this early stage of their life.
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.
For a more detailed explanation of how rating works, see our FAQs
