Voting was again pretty close for most of the way through but in the last few days one entry edged a little ahead of the rest of the field.

First place goes to

tom melton with Leucistic red kite which attracted 13/118 votes.

Second place -

johnnyoxygen with feeding whitethroat which attracted 10/118 votes.

Third place was a tie both attracting 9/118 votes.
