A photograph of a silhouetted robin in a tree has scooped an award.

Fifteen-year-old Mark Turner's photograph was voted the public's favourite at the Garden Wildlife Showcase at Wallington County Grammar School last week.

The photography competition encouraged people to get a snapshot of garden wildlife.

Eleven other entries were named runners up and all 12 photographs will now be included in a Garden Wildlife Calendar which will be distributed free at the annual BioBlitz in August.
