Thank you so much!

Thanks, I was already wondering about the first (Latin) part of the name. The literal translation of dwerg-oor-uil is dwarf eared owl. Is that the same as scops Owl? Maybe the Ponderosa part doesn't refer to the trees either, but to Flammy's fanbase right now; it's getting quite large now!

If you're still not sure who to vote for, you should know that Flammy's Dutch name is absolute fire: Ponderosadwergooruil!

At least there is still 1 BFO left for the next round. Meanwhile, I'm definitely on #teamFlammy!

A BFO vs BFO final would be so epic!

BFO stands for everything good, so for Big F'n Owl too. Also, they are goong to rename him soon, so maybe Big F'n Owl will be the official name soon (probably not though).

Screech Owl is such a great owl, but I'm fully committed to BFO's cause by now. They're just so glorious and perfect as the representative of the Superbowl community. Go BFO! (Image from a video geniously called "Blakiston's Fish Owl" by Ray H)

Oof! SEO definitely needs some propaganda! They need to overcome a 20 point gap right now! But who knows, the day is still long. Thanks for helping the OOP in getting some well-deserved attention, to stop the hegemony of the Snowy Owl.

I must say I expected to read some bad stuff about Verreaux, but digging up a corpse and sending it to another country is on another level of "not okay". I appreciate that you try to keep out politics. I follow politics quite well, but sometimes it's nice to have something apolitical as well.

You made a post about this a while ago, didn't you? I completely forgot about these renamings! I'm also curious what will happen to the names in other languages. In Dutch, my native language, they translated the name from English: I think they'll rename that too, but I don't know for sure. Also, that Audubon guy doesn't seem to deserve the organization being named after him. Ironic indeed!

I wasn't expecting this either! But we have already seen some surprises this tournament, with the early elimination of the Eurasian Eagle Owl (that one still hurts me) for example. Maybe people are more likely to vote for the underdog in this tournament?
