Welcome to the 14th annual Oregon Outdoors Wild Bird Photo Contest. Submit up to three photos by 5 p.m. Friday, Dec. 6, 2013, for a chance to get published in Oregon Outdoors.

Criteria:

1) Only photographs of wild birds are eligible.

2) Birds must be photographed in the wild (no zoo photos or pictures of tethered birds, caged birds or dead birds mounted by taxidermy).

3) Either the birds or the photographer must be from Oregon. (We are Oregon Outdoors, after all.) No out-of-state birds shot by out-of-state photographers, but out-of-state residents who shoot photos here are welcome to submit. And Oregon residents who traveled on birding trips are welcome to submit.

For other details, see our Official Rules Page.
