RSPB Inspiring Nature Calendar Competition 2026

We are searching for 12 photographs, captured by you – our supporters – to feature in the Inspiring Nature Calendar 2026. Whether it’s a picture of a bird, bug, plant, animal or a landscape, if it was taken by you in the UK, then we’d love to see it!

Capturing the magic of wildlife and wild places

From ocean waves crashing against sea cliffs to Starlings swirling in winter skies, it’s easy to find a moment of magic in the UK’s great outdoors. We recently asked you to share your favourite nature moments you’ve caught on camera, and soon we’ll be announcing which of those images will feature in our Inspiring Nature Calendar 2026.

The first, second and third prize winners will receive an outdoor pack and camera accessory bundle from our competition sponsor Osprey. The photographers of each of the 12 final calendar images will receive a copy of the calendar.

The calendar is a key product in our Christmas range for 2025 and will be sold in all RSPB stores, our online shop, our mail order catalogue and in selected retail stores across the UK!

Winners will be chosen by a panel of judges. Final decisions will be made by the Product Development Manager and Product Licensing Manager for calendars. Check back soon to see the winning images!
