Early bird wins Photo Competition and Listening with 'deer' ears

Early bird wins Photo Competition

We are excited to announce that Tim Nightingale is our 2023 Photo Competition winner, with his stunning photo Cormorant at Sunrise. Tim took his winning photo very early in the morning at Rye Harbour Nature Reserve.

Runner-up was Brian Watkins, with his superb photo of a woodland bird in an iconic pose - Nuthatch on Fungi.

For this year's competition, our judges, headed up by professional international wildlife photographer David Plummer, selected 12 finalists from more than 500 entries for its online photography competition. Then it was over to the public, where over 1000 people voted for their favourite.

Listening with 'deer' ears

Kissing trees, rustling leaves, squeaking puddles. What might we be able to hear if we really listen when we're out enjoying nature?

Emma Chaplin has been asking her Sussex Wildlife Trust colleagues to share their favourite sounds, or ones that they find most interesting. 

Lend us your ears
