Westerman’s
Bird of the Month

A year of birding moments, prizes, and your photos in print

Got a great bird shot? Share it with us and you could be crowned our next Bird of the Month! This is your chance to show off your birdwatching skills and celebrate the feathered visitors in your garden, park, or favourite wild spot.

How it works

Each month, we select one winning photo from the images we’re tagged in. To enter, simply share your best birding photo on Instagram or Facebook and tag @Westermans or use the hashtag #WestermansBirdoftheMonth, or both! We’ll choose one lucky winner every month to receive a Westerman’s birding hamper and have their photo shared on our socials.

But that’s not all! Our winning images will be turned into the artwork for our annual Westerman’s Calendar. Each monthly winner will also receive a calendar shipped to them as our way of saying thank you for participating.
