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 My Direct Plan and Epic Signs & Graphics.
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.
