For this contest I wish to see your best photos of wild wading birds in water. Wading birds, with their long, thin legs, are those birds that wade when foraging for food and include not only waders but herons, flamingos and egrets. Water must be present in your image. The birds must be wild so please no images of zoo animals or wading birds in captivity. Both colour and black and white images are allowed.
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.
