Get ready to showcase your finest bird photography skills! The Birdo Bird Photographer of the Year 2025 international photo contest is gearing up to accept submissions starting on March 10, 2025. Now entering its fourth year, this inspiring competition was created to motivate people worldwide to connect with the beauty and incredible variety of bird species. From common backyard birds to rare, elusive species, the contest highlights the wonder of the avian world.

In 2024, photographers from 30 different countries participated, and for the 2025 competition, organizers are excited to welcome an even broader range of participants from across the globe. This growing international presence is invaluable, as it allows diverse cultural traditions, photographic techniques, and natural environments to become part of the contest’s visual narrative. By inviting photographers from more regions, the competition continues to expand its reach, creating an opportunity for audiences to explore new species and habitats they may never have encountered before.

Open to photographers of all ages and levels of experience, the contest offers 9 + 1 exciting categories for entrants to showcase their creativity. The competition prides itself on being fully accessible by maintaining a no-entry-fee policy, ensuring financial constraints are never a barrier to participation.

Among the ten categories, the special Conservation category deserves special mention. This meaningful addition spotlights photographic series that focus on bird protection and the preservation of natural habitats. By celebrating conservation efforts, the competition hopes to raise awareness about the vulnerability of birds and the crucial role humans play in safeguarding their future. Each year, a standout photo series in this category is honored for its impact and message. By blending the art of photography with environmental advocacy, the Birdo Bird Photographer of the Year contest aims to inspire greater respect and care for the natural world.
