September 23, 2026	++ Club Competition Wildlife	Take a photo of a WILD animal, preferably in its natural setting. Animals, birds, bugs, butterflies, fish – all are good. Just make sure it’s a wild, NOT a domestic animal (think zebra rather than a horse; quail rather than a chicken). It is okay to show “hand of man” in your photos – fences, power lines, vehicles, etc.
