Susanville’s world famous, outdoor-adventure photographer Randy Robbins has been honored as the winner of the Sierra Nevada Conservancy’s 2024 California Wildlife Photo of the Year contest for a photo of a ‘diving otter’ taken north of the causeway at Lake Almanor, just outside of Chester.
This makes back-to-back Sierra Nevada Conservancy wins for Robbins, whose barking gray fox photo was the SNC’s winner for 2023.
“I have had six images chosen as finalists in this contest, with three making the final winners list. My photo of a bald eagle catching a trout was the California Wildlife Photo of the Year for 2019,” explains Robbins.
On February 18th Robbins was honored with a Proclamation from the Lassen County Board of Supervisors recognizing his photographic achievements.
