Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards

[Mrs Glockrunner]

An owl dangling precariously from a branch has scooped the overall prize of this year's Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards.  Out of the 3,500 entries, Tibor Kercz won the overall prize with his series of images showing an owl losing its footing and trying to claw its way back on to a branch.   Other entrants included a yawning dormouse, a photobombing sea turtle and a rather shocked seal.  Take a look at all the winning photos from the competition.
