Win a Camera with Backyard Biologist!

You don’t need to travel far to see awesome creatures and interesting plants! Just visit your nearest garden, park, pond, or field. You’ll be amazed at how much cool life is living in your own backyard. AND it could make you a winner!

The Backyard Biologist contest is back. Submit your best nature photo and you could take home one of this year’s super duper, amazing, and fantastic prizes: a Canon Rebel T7 Camera!

This year’s categories are…

Epic Landscape

From ocean views to mega mountains, and all the forests in between, this category is all about landscapes. Snap a picture that makes us feel like we’re out in nature with you.

Coolest Colours

Do you love bluebells? Can’t get enough of red foxes? Or are rainbows more your style? This category is all about colours! You could focus on one colour or all of them. Just make sure it’s a picture that makes us go “WOW!”

Wonderful Wildlife

When it comes to animals, we just can’t get enough. For this category, we’re collecting pictures of all kinds of wildlife. Send us pictures of creepy crawlies, cute mammals, funky fish, brilliant birds, and more. We’ll take them all! NOTE: no pets allowed!

The Prize:

The winner from each category will get 1 of 3 Canon Rebel T7 Cameras! It’s a small, beginner DSLR camera that’s easy to use and worth $650 each! It’s great for anyone who wants to take amazing shots and grow as a photographer.

BUT THAT’S NOT ALL! The winners will also get a chance to have their photograph put on display at the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM).

The contest closes July 19, 2023, at 11:59 PM ET.
