Amazing Nature Contest: Thematic Challenge - #11/2

(Google translate from Czech)

So I'm curious how summer vacations will "sign" on the number of contest articles :-)

Greetings to all Amazing Nature Community supporters

Somehow, those "natural" competitions are dying for lack of competitors. It will probably be because everyone diligently collects experiences and information in the middle of nature and makes "reserves" of experiences for when the weather is bad :-)

Nevertheless, I dare to open another competitive round of the thematic challenge.
I will not write idly for a long time and will immediately offer you a new topic.

The topic for this challenge is:
SURPRISING ENCOUNTER

I probably don't have to explain at length what the topic is about. Perhaps each of us has experienced an encounter in nature that surprised us.

I was also surprised on Saturday's walk when I saw crayfish in a nearby stream.

And what was my surprise when I found out that @suzana72 also experienced a similar "meeting".

Your tasks for this topic:

• take a documentary photo
• describe a thing (animal, insect, plant, etc.) that you surprisingly encountered
• try to provide relevant information

I look forward to your contest articles. Don't forget to read the general rules too :-)

Rules for participation in the thematic challenge:

• Publish your contribution IN AN AMAZING NATURAL COMMUNITY. You can also use TAG #amazingnature if you want
• CLEARLY state that your entry is an ENTRY in this competition.
• All images must be your own. You can use an amazing nature banner if you like or you can create your own.
• In the TEXT Indicate why these pictures represent YOUR AMAZING NATURE. This is an ESSENTIAL part of this competition – 200 WORDS MINIMUM
• Place a link to your post IN COMMENTARY. You can add an image if you want. It is NECESSARY because I have to publish a link in Discord on Sunday, 5 days later for voting and also for my own compilation purposes.
• The entry window is open ~ 5 DAYS. Pay attention to - CLOSED in the title. Pay attention to the time bar (PeakD)

Prizes to win:
1st: 3 NC
2nd: 2 NC
3rd: 1 NC
I will introduce all participants in the entry section of the announcements, which will be published about a week later on Tuesday (according to my schedule, this may change). This way you will have a nice compilation of all.

How are winners selected?
The entire DNA community will vote for the winners. That's why we created a special competition channel #contest-entries in DNA Discord (Amazing Nature Contest). Here I will publish a post with the announcement including the winners (Announcement) EVERY MONDAY together with all your contributions (Contributions) EVERY SUNDAY. Each DNA member will be able to assign a "voting emoji" under the items for 24 HOURS. In the end, the lucky winners are three of them. In case of a draw, I will join as a judge.

Note: The above channels on the DNA discord are for voting only! Do not post links to your competition articles and photos here!
I ask the participants of the competition NOT to VOTE for their own article at the discord !! It's not compatible with good manners :-)
