It's time for young birders to hone their bird-identifying skills and young artists to focus their talents on Georgia birds -- DNR's Youth Birding Competition and T-shirt Art Contest are just around the corner!
The 12th annual birding competition is April 29-30, with registration open at
www.georgiawildlife.com/ybc until March 31. T-shirt art entries must be submitted by March 8.
These fun events are open to youth of all skill levels in birding or art. Both also end in a free awards banquet featuring prizes and a live animal show at Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center near Mansfield that Sunday evening.
