It was a joy to see the many wonderful photos entered into the 2024 Winter Photo Contest.  A big ‘Thank you’ to our judges who did a very difficult job, of selecting the winners. Plus thanks to the Hamilton Conservation Authority for once again playing a pivotal role.

It seems to have been such a strange winter, and the contest organizers are just waiting for spring to get moving along so we can begin the Summer 2024 – 2025 Photo Contest.  But who would have believed that a photographer would manage to take a photo of an inquisitive caterpillar on a midwinter Ontario morning?

Thank you to the photographers,  and all the support we receive to ensure the success of the contest!
