Birds of a feather will flock together. ~ MARTIAL, Epigrams

It’s time to start building again. This time we want to see birds. Build the ultimate exhibit for the most beautiful/colorful birds in the world. But if this might be a bit too simple for you; let us spice things up a bit. For this building contest, you can work in groups.


Rules:

  • The entry must include a minimum of 8 photos and a maximum of 25, 1 overview must be included.
  • Participants have to create one or more aviaries, using at least 4 different bird species.
  • You can only use two non-flying species. Every specie used, must be clearly visible on one of the pictures.
  • The entire entry must be built on one map.
  • For this contest you will be able to work alone or in groups of maximum 4 persons.
  • If you work in group: Only one member has to post the entry, but has to mention all the names of the group members. All members of the group must have an account on this site.
  • Only modern (still alive today) birds are allowed for this contest.
  • PU downloads and statues allowed, but use of leaked content is forbidden and will get you disqualified.
  • Some simple editing (only borders or logos) of the pictures is allowed, entries that look over-edited will be disqualified.
  • Entries must be submitted before 16 May in the Staff PM Box and should be named Feather Flock - title of your entry'.


Judging:

  • Voting will begin once all entries are in and the contest is closed.
  • Voting ends on 23 May.


Prizes:

  • 1st prize - A rare bird silhouette and 500 pointies
  • 2nd prize - A bird silhouette and 300 pointies
  • 3rd prize - A bird silhouette and 200 pointies

    All contestants will receive 100 pointies regardless the position.
    If you work in group, the received pointies will be divided between all members of the group. But each group member will receive a silhouette, if the group wins one.

Yes, you can use ducks and other waterfowl.
Just keep in mind there has to be at least one aviary in your entry ;)

With flightless birds, we mean birds that don't fly in real life.

So, do you have to do it in groups or are you allowed to do it on your one?

I'll enter! It's been a while since I've built an aviary... I neglect ZT2 birds despite loving them IRL. xD

PS: Out of curiosity, why the limit on flightless birds? I could understand setting up the rules to prohibit showcasing ONLY flightless birds, but a cap of 2? There are so many fun things that could be done with penguins, ratites, etc. Like I said, just curious!

Two questions, 1-Can we trim photos or make photos smaller and 2-Can the photos be from one of your zoo S&Ts?
