To celebrate Wild Child Day the Heritage Council has also launched their Wild Child photo competition. People are invited to submit an image that they think captures the spirit and diversity of biodiversity. Photos should be of habitats, wildlife and if possible also include people. The deadline for entry is September 10. Photos and descriptions can be entered under three categories - Junior seven-12 years, Youth 13-20 and Adult 21+. All entries must be uploaded to www.pix.ie/groups/heritageweek . Wildlife expert Eanna Ní Lamhna will lead the judging panel and winners will be announced on September 20, 2010.
