Angry Birds Contest


What will we accept? We want birds that look angry!! This can be a grumpy expression, bickering birds, birds who look like they are yelling (not singing), birds who are on alert naturally (ex: crest raised - see Kinglet below) or birds who naturally look angry - a front view usually helps! Be creative, we will accept the photos as long as you defend the reasoning behind why it looks angry.

Want some inspiration? Check out the Angry Birds #BirdPoker theme on Google+. When you click the link, be sure to also click "Best of" otherwise you are not seeing the relevant posts.

Deadline: May 8, 2012, midnight, EST
