Bought to you by the Cowra Natural Resource Management Committee and partners, the adorably-named Archibird Prize photography competition is now open for its 2nd year! Entrants can submit up to 10 photos per category (there are 3 categories). Photos must be of wild Australian birds taken within 100kms of Cowra. Head over to their website for more details.

Holly Parsons from Birdlife Australia will teach you how to ID birds and participate in this year's Aussie Backyard Bird Count, an activity for all-ages that involves observing and counting the birds that live near you. Holly will also look at what you can plant to create bird habitat in your backyard.
