We had an overwhelming response to our photography competition this year. It wasn't an easy task to whittle down over 500 entries to 12 winners and 12 runners up but we have selected 24 beautiful images which will all feature in our 2027 calendar.
The 2027 calendar is now available for pre-order via our online shop*. It features a diverse range of wildlife including a grass snake, a brown hare and a group of long-tailed tits.
💷 Each calendar costs just £10
