Each month, NatureSpot picks out some of the most interesting new images that have been added that month and selects a winner. We are not only looking for great photos that add to the our wildlife galleries, but also for those that capture unusual species, show interesting behaviour or illustrate a key identification feature. Use the filters to select images for a particular month or change the order of display as desired.
