ÌÇÐÄlogo

This year’s  open for entries! The ÌÇÐÄlogo invites photographers and videographers to enter the 2025 ÌÇÐÄlogo Photography Awards, now open to submissions until March 5, 2025, at noon Eastern Time, 8 a.m. Alaska time. Judges will award eight prizes to residents of the U.S. and Canada, including the new Birds Without Borders Prize and Conservation Prize, along with the Grand Prize, Birds in Landscapes Prize, Youth Prize, Plants for Birds Prize, Female Bird Prize, and Video Prize.

Now in its 16th year, the ÌÇÐÄlogo Photography Awards is expanding to welcome photography and video submissions from Chile and Colombia. Many vulnerable birds migrate between Canada and the U.S. and these vibrant countries. ÌÇÐÄlogo works to protect these birds from the dual crises of climate change and biodiversity loss by coordinating efforts across multiple regions to ensure their survival year-round. With the expanded scope and new prizes, the ÌÇÐÄlogo Photography Awards will highlight how birds bring people together across geographies and ecosystems, all while continuing to showcase the stunning imagery that bird lovers have come to expect.

The 2025 contest prizes are:

• Grand Prize: $5,000 USD
