WINNER: SCREECH OWL 88-28

The tiny owls have done very well for themselves so far, and we have 2 great ones here to fight it out!

Screech Owl had a low turnout in his first pairing, but still got the votes to move to round 2. It's going to take a much better performance today to get to round 3. The Screech Owl is great at looking grumpy or aloof, but squishable and cute at the same time. No need to pick between the red or grey one, you can have both today. Is that attitude and those tufts what it takes to get your upvote today?

Northern Pygmy never took his front or rear eyes off the prize in round 1. The Hawk Owl put up a solid fight, and you all respected his look and strength, but the little brown owl walked away the victor in the end. The inverse size advantage doesn't come into play here, and will a lack of tuft be a liability for the Pygmy?

A lot is going to come down to which colors theme is the one to catch your eye and if you're into tufts or that sleek smooth look. Upvote your pick now!

I'm feeling sorry for the pygmy owl. It's a solid contender, and doesn't deserve such a lopsided score. Though I admit I'm voting for screech.

fr, I love the pygmy but how could I possibly not vote for the screech owl?

We all know they're all great, so no need to feel guilty! Both are awesome animals!
