Dear members, we would like to invite you to take part in our 2021 bird photography competition. We hope it will inspire you to get up close and personal with our local feathered friends. Birds should be photographed within the village boundary (and in line with local restrictions) and all entries will be uploaded to our new website (https://woodcotecg.org.uk/). The best entries will be rewarded with something suitably themed and delicious! Why not make a start during the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch which takes place in a few weeks between 29-31 January
If you need some inpsiration and techniques for getting some amazing results with a simple phone camera you could watch Simon King’s tips that were broadcast on Countryfile a few weeks ago (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000qqr2).
Please send a message to info@woodcotecg.ork.uk if you are interested in being kept up to date with how things progress, or just send your entries to the same address. The closing date is 31 Dec 2021
Winning entry:- James Reid – Blue Tits in Woodcote! Amazing, well done James!
Other entries:
Peach-faced love bird (escapee??) 
Spotted flycatcher (honest!)
