NVBA’s photo calendar contest is back! Submit your best bird photos today.
Last year's calendar contest brought in more photos than we expected, and we're bringing it back for a second year. Submit your bird photos taken in northern Virginia by October 16th, then share your entry with friends and family so they can vote. Each vote is $1, and the fourteen photos with the most votes will be featured in NVBA's 2027 calendar. The sooner you enter, the more time you have to share with your community and get your photo in the calendar!
Not interested in submitting a photo? You don't need to enter a photo to take part! Anyone can vote for their favorites, and every vote supports NVBA's conservation and community programs. Calendars will be available to order through the end of the year and orders placed by early December will arrive in time for the holidays.
