About

📷 Photograph and log 5 species

🏆 Complete the challenge and earn your digital finisher’s badge

⭐ Be in with a chance to win an incredible OM-1 MKII camera and a M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-600mm F5.0-6.3 IS lens (worth $5,700)

During April, OM System challenges you to reveal wonder. All you need to do is discover and photograph 5 bird species. We encourage you to go beyond your comfort zone and experiment with new techniques or perspectives. Whether it's playing with light and shadows, exploring different angles, or capturing birds in motion, let your creativity soar. It doesn’t need to be ground-breaking, just fun-making! Best of all, you could be in with a chance to win an incredible OM-1 MKII camera and a M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-600mm F5.0-6.3 IS lens (worth $5,700)

OM System cameras are known for their ability to capture unseen glimpses of nature in the great outdoors. Now it’s your turn. Just go outside and turn your lens to the birds around you.

Don't worry if you're not an expert in bird photography; any bird photo counts, whether it's captured with high-end gear or your simple smartphone.

We almost forgot to mention, and this is important. You just need to complete the challenge to be added to the prize draw. It's not about being at the top of the leaderboard - although that does feel nice - it's about birds, fun and photos; in that order!

Head out, heads up and see how many different species you can photograph! This challenge is for tickable species only. You can read more about tickable species here.

This challenge is for anyone with a Birda account.

This challenge starts and ends based on the GMT time zone. All individual species logged globally will count towards this challenge and will be included in any leaderboard placement. All sightings must be logged before midnight on the day the challenge ends.

Be honest with yourself and other birders, but above all, respectful of them and any other outdoor users, everywhere – especially online. If you didn’t see it (or hear it), please don’t put it on Birda.

I use this app all the time as it’s quick and easy to log individual sightings or whole birding sessions. It’s an excellent way to meet new people and the forum is full of really friendly people. The challenges are a great way to get involved and learn more about birds. Cannot recommend it enough!

Great app for beginner twitchers
I’ve had a passion of photographing birds for a long time now but have only just gotten into proper birdwatching, and this app is brilliant for those just getting started. There is a great sense of community among users and the app is very easy to use and professional. Awesome app altogether
