I've never really seen the point in competitions, but got a bit of enthusiasm & recently had some success - quite a few in the Times travel section & a paid for picture story:

Pictured: One of the otters looking very content sunbathes on a seaweed covered rock
A mother otter relaxes on a seaweed-covered rock after catching a tasty fish supper for her two excitable young pups. While the two male pups play with the scorpion fish they have been given, the mother lays back and takes advantage of a few moments peace.
As she relaxes, one of the inquisitive pups carefully examines the fish, before the pair of young otters excitedly eat the tasty treat. The photographs were captured by surgeon Simon Roberts in Loch Na keal, on the Isle of Mull, Scotland. SEE OUR COPY FOR MORE DETAILS.

I've put in a few for big National competitions & was amazed to be short-listed for the British Photography Awards. Go & have a look at some of the really AMAZING photos https://www.britishphotographyawards.org/2019-Shortlist. Even more shocked to be on the final list off the shortlist & invited to tThe London Savoy hotel for the awards ceremony end of January 2019. I think I am in the last four. with this one from Svalbard:
