Festival de l´Oiseau et de la Nature
2024 CALL FOR ENTRIES
Since 1991, the Bay of Somme (North of France), an internationally recognized migratory site, has celebrated the return of spring and birds on the occasion of the Bird and Nature Festival.
If for 33 years, the Festival remains an unmissable event for nature lovers,
the 2 competitions it organizes have allowed it to obtain international recognition: The Photo Competition (only dedicated to the bird) is one of the 10 most renowned in Europe, and the documentaries received as part of the Film Competition come from 47 countries.
Photos and films made by almost as many amateurs as professionals, who express image by image, their personal vision of a wild, universal but also fragile nature.
