Today the National Audubon Society announced the winners and honorable mentions of the 2025 Audubon Photography Awards, including two images that capture bird life in Florida. Now in its sixteenth year, the awards have expanded to Chile and Colombia with new prizes focusing on migratory species, habitats, and conservation—all while continuing to feature stunning imagery that highlights the beauty and joy of birds and fascinating avian behaviors.
Jean Hall is the 2025 Conservation Award Winner for her photograph of a Burrowing Owl on Marco Island, FL. Tianze Ling is the 2025 Video Award Winner for his footage of a Burrowing Owl nest on a soccer field in Hollywood, FL.
“We are so thrilled that Florida’s Burrowing Owls are the subjects of two Audubon Photography Award this year. We have worked with Jean Hall for years, who is a tireless advocate of conservation and beautifully illustrates how responsible, ethical photography can protect birds and the places they need. Congratulations to both photographers on their Florida image/video!” ~ Julie Wraithmell, Executive Director, Audubon Florida…
