The competition awards prizes to the best pictures of bees and other pollinators taken in Australia as judged by the Australian Pollinator Week judging panel.
The competition now runs alongside a new schools pollinator art competition, providing an accessible way for school-aged students to learn about pollinators.
The competition takes place in the lead-up to Australian Pollinator Week, a nine-day festival from November 8 to 16, dedicated to raising awareness of the importance of pollinators and supporting their needs.
The 2025 pollinator photography competition closes on Sunday, October 26, at 5pm.
