Terry McKeown: "This statue is located at the site where child migrants sent from the UK and Malta first stepped on to Australian soil in Fremantle, Western Australia. These children endured many hardships but went on to make a valuable contribution to the fabric of modern Australia."

Pierino Algieri: "Atlantic salmon migrating up the river Lledr in North Wales. This is my favourite place to photograph the amazing leaping salmon as they battle up the rivers to their place of birth. They can leap up to 12 feet or more to negotiate large waterfalls such as this one."

Cara Duncan: "Where should we migrate to this year? I bet you wouldn't need a lamp if we lived in South America. These huddling parakeets took it in turns to sit in front of the light for warmth... you can't blame them living in Scotland!"
