We wanted to remind you that our photo competition closes on the 30th September. We are assuming everyone is leaving it to the last minute - so wanted to send a quick reminder. Here are the details:
There are two competitions that you can enter
· Children (15 years old or younger, as of September 30th 2024)
· Adults (16 years or older, as of September 30th 2024)
The closing date for this competition is the 30th September. All entries must be submitted via email to [email protected] or by direct message to the editor on Facebook. Each entry must include contact details (name, phone, email), the date of the photograph and the location where the photograph was taken. The winners will be announced in October and included in the winter Newsletter.
We are looking for photographs of any fauna (mammals, birds, bugs) taken anywhere between Exmouth to Sidmouth and from Ottery St. Mary to Budleigh Salterton. Photographs must be taken in the defined competition timeline (May 1st to September 30th).
Pictures will be judged in digital form.

We look forward to seeing your pictures.
