This will be a very simple, no frills contest. 1 prize unless there is a generous donation.
Prize:1 Medium Erin Pot which I won as second prize winner of the latest contest.
Subject: Native flora or fauna, plants or animals
Deadline: March 21st 2010. First day of Spring. Please post no later than 11:59 PM 3/21/10 US New York City Time.
Requirements: Write a reply to this thread on any animal or plant(orchid or not) native to your country or region that is important or interesting to you. In fact, for US members please write on an animal or plant native to your state.
Native orchid species are highly encouraged. It doesn't have to be found only in your state, but it must live there at some point in the year. Include the scientific name of the creature of your choice. You can talk about why it might be important or why it might be endangered if it is. Whatever. No more 850 words, minimum of 350. You can use any type of illustration, please ask for permission if you use any photos or art that you did not create. Do not use more than 4 photos or other type of illustration (all combined = 4), and upload them to orchid board gallery first so that the photos stay on the thread as long as orchid board is running.
Please use correct English with complete sentences and proper grammar to the best of your ability.
How we will determine the winners:
I will set up a poll to have orchid board members vote for first prize.
I hope a lot of people join in just for fun, or just to show off what you know, or just to share with everyone something that you might be worried about (ex: endangered animal or plant), as well as to enter in a chance to win another prize
