Summer is officially here, which means vacation time, which means outdoor recreating, which means plenty of photo ops. So while you're out beach bumming, mountain climbing, or simply backyard frolicking, remember to keep an eye out for our feathered companions. A snap of the lens of a bird at just the right moment could win you a cool trip to Honduras, Peru--even Australia!--that is, once you submit your shot to ÃÛèÖAPP's first-ever photo awards. Now, wouldn't it be nice to have next year's vacation planned?
The deadline for entries is July 15th. Go to for more information.
