HEN parties are part and parcel of life in York.

Andy Falconer captured this scene recently and posted it in our Camera Club.

It was his entry into our monthly themed competition - 'Out and About'.

Today, we are sharing our ten favourite entries in the competition and revealing the winner.

Thanks to everyone for taking part - which photo is your favourite?

We really loved these photos:

* The big wheel in St Sampon's Square captured in stunning black and white by Carys Tew

* Yarn bombers get busy as bees in Walmgate by Garry Hornby

* Entertainment from The Hyde Family Jam in York by Lisa Young

* York's iconic Bile Beans sign in York by Dave Allison

* Hens out and about by Andy Falconer

* Beach huts at Scarborough by Christine Hainsworth

* Bluebells at Roseberry Topping by Andrew Briggs

* Peacock at Castle Howard by Dave Allison

* The Wisteria at Goddards Gardens by Sue Gabbatiss.

But our outright winner is Joy Stead for this excellent photo of a robin perched upon a football - very timely too considering the Euro football championships are about to start!

Congratulations to Joy, who has won our £50 prize.
