The winning entries for the 2025-26 Tennessee Wildlife magazine photo contest have been selected by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency and will appear in the annual calendar, starting in August.
TWRA staff selected photographs from a record number of submissions and had the challenge to narrow the entries to 14 photos that will appear in the calendar issue. The other entries will be kept on file and could have the opportunity to appear in future agency publications and on the agency’s website.
The photographers with the selected entries are Lisa Byrd (Rutherford County), Donna Bourdon (Decatur), Peggy GeFellers (Greeneville), Bill Gelsleichter (Crossville), Phillip Grubb (Mascot), Mark Harriman (Germantown), Timothy Loyd (Sumner County), John Mack (Ithaca, N.Y.), Rick McCulley (Rockwood), Becky Ross McRae (Bartlett), Sue Mitchell (Lenoir City), Michael Pachis (Memphis), Houston Reasonover (Lebanon), and Frank Snyder (Athens)…
