Buffy Fish Owl
No this can't be the end for Buffy! Just look at that majestic awkwardness. It's hard to overcome the cute factor though
It feels like a low turnout day. Hopefully some people show up later, or there will be some disappointed people tomorrow.
I can't believe the drop in votes Snowy is having. That will be a big upset if it loses to Crested! You guys had me thinking this was Snowy's year...
I was hesitant but the fish owl eating a fish is just too much beautiful.
I was unsure whether I should include that pic or not. I could see how some could dislike it, but you also can't have a fish owl without acknowledging it eats fish.
It was a pretty big fish as well, and the expression says "I can hardly believe I got one this large myself!"
No, that pic is excellent. It’s just so weird that some owls eat fish. It almost got me to vote for it.
I don't know exactly how they get them. I'd love to see it because everything I read says they don't like to get wet.
There's the Fish Owls of Asia (Brown, Buffy, Tawny, Blakiston's) and the Fishing Owls of Africa (Pel's, Rufous, Vermiculated) that all love fish.
Just one more way that they’re like cats.
Good point!
I wonder if owls like knocking things off tables...
Holy shit look at those legs
If your life depends on finding, you outta have some darn fine fishing rods!
