I am blown away to reveal that my photo of these Barred Owlets has been selected as Highly Honored in the Animal Antics category of the Nature’s Best Photography International Awards. There were more than 25,000 entries from 62 countries, so I am indeed highly honored.

As some of you know, I have been focusing on photographing "nearby nature" to complement my work helping diversify the outdoors. Nearby = access. I'm thrilled that this image was captured in Seward Park, the "back yard" of the most diverse part of Seattle. In the 98118 zip code, where the park is located, more 60% of residents are non-white, some 60 different languages are spoken, and nearly 30%, including me, were born outside the U.S.

Find a link to all the wonderful winning images in my bio.

My image will be published in the 2024 Winter Special Collectors’ Edition of @naturesbestphotomagazine.
