Screech Owl
Superbowl
For owls that are superb.
Northern Pygmie is cute, but the Screech has all the attitude and energy of a big owl, in a small owl package. It's going to be hard to beat, in my book.
And the Screechie had such great vocalizations too!
An owl sound-off match could be a thing for the future even!
Our friendly neighborhood screech owls used to meet up on our neighbors basketball goal the summer of 2020. Was a great thing to look forward to every night at dusk, so we built an owl box for them that squirrels have taken over.
So lucky! I want Screech Owls in my neighborhood, but I'm in Great Horned territory, so they'd just become snacks! I'm going to an event this coming weekend to try to hear screechies though. They call them Hoot Hikes around here if any of you want to look for one near you.
Northern Pygmy Owl
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!
Screech 10000%
It's tough to beat a Screech in a popularity contest!
Pygmy Owl club, represent
All eyes on the Pygmy! Literally!
Man I hope this ends up being chicuatli vs chicuatli.
You guys have proven anything is possible in this tournament. There have been a number of things I didn't see happening anyway!
Good luck to all your favorites, they're all best owls!
It's good to see you still around! I remember we talked about chicuatli before and I got to learn a lot. I think about you guys when I don't see your names pop up for a while. Hope you're doing well!
Fuck. Why these two, why now?
I was so set on pygmy from the title photo, but the comment photo of lil screech has me wavering....
This is a tough contest for sure. The choices are getting harder and harder as we go forward.
