Winner, 11-14 years. Sunflower songbird, by Andrés Luis Dominguez Blanco, Spain. As light faded at the end of a warm May afternoon, Andrés’ attention was drawn to a warbler flitting from flower to flower. From his hide in his father’s car, he photographed the singer, “the king of its territory”. Melodious warblers are one of more than 400 species of songbird known as old world warblers, which each have a distinctive song. The song of a melodious warbler is a pleasant babbling, without the mimicked sounds that other warblers sometimes make. (Photo by Andrés Luis Dominguez/Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2021)
