January 2012: Fattening up for winter

Winter is now really starting to bite, and you'll have noticed the birds and wildlife in your garden or local patch are needing all the help they can get. We want to see your shots of them at feeders and eating, gathering all the strength they can.


Each month the editor's favourite images are featured in the Your Photos pages of the current issue and the ones with the most votes may even be showcased in our two-weekly newsletter.


The editor's choice is final and correspondence will not be entered into.


The final date for submissions is 1 February 2012.


The final date for voting is 1 March 2012.


Don't forget that although you can only upload your images for a month, you can still vote for another month after that and encourage your friends to vote. All votes submitted by the final deadline will count.
