The Bird Photographer of the Year offers a whopping cash prize of £5,000 ($6,500 USD) to the winning entry. The runner-ups, however, are promised with merchandise, equipment, and even smaller amount of cash.
BTO chief executive Andy Clements had this to say:
Bird Photographer of the Year aims to celebrate the artistry of bird photography and aid conservation by supporting the valuable work carried out by the BTO.”
According to BoredPanda, the organization has compiled the winning and short-listed entries for a special photobook. Its 2017 edition is in fact available already. The profits from the photobook’s sales will directly go to the BTO’s bird conservation efforts.
