Category: Animals - Challenge: On the bird table
'A painting of one or more local wild birds that visit our gardens. It’s fine if they are perched on a twig or sitting on the ground; a bird table is not essential for this challenge.'
Please ask yourself if your painting shows the kind of bird you would see in your garden before you enter it. Not any bird painting will do! Entries which do not fit this particular challenge will be deleted after the deadline.
