Cool concept! I like the way you're emphasizing the name Birding Aboard.
That's what Diana is really looking for ... a wordmark-style logo, similar to your Dr. B's, In your Mouth Toppings, or I Really Love Movies.
Can we see some variations with the words Birding and Aboard "side-by-side" and "stacked"? Maybe with the species of birds mentioned in the contest description (albatross, storm-petrel, tropicbird) "flying" as the i's in Birding. And the other contest descriptors somehow highlighted and worked into the Aboard text block (binocular shapes, survey checklist and boxes, etc.).
And sorry, my mistake, the sub-text would be better if ordered "Binoculars and Cameras" versus the other way around.
We just ended the contest early as Diana pretty much fell in love with the Tropicbird and binoculars submission from ibot. So I didn't want to waste any more of your time. I knew where she was going to end up. :-)
But she really liked your ideas also and I wanted to thank you for the excellent effort.
GREAT work and hope to "see" you in another contest!
