Last week we featured the winners of this year’s annual Audubon Photography Awards, and today, the contest organizers were kind enough to share some of their Top 100 images from the thousands of entries. Photographers were competing for eight prizes across five divisions, and their images depicted birdlife from all 50 U.S. states as well as seven Canadian provinces and territories.
