WINNER: SNOWY OWL 70-64

Buffy Fish Owl has overcome some big obstacles to get here. It made a name for itself against Long Eared Owl. It managed to defeat the top ranked Barn Owl in a huge upset victory. Then it was able to get a victory over the popular Little Owl. Now it's up against a living legend in the semi-finals. Does Buffy have what it takes to be the new King or Queen of Owls?

Snowy Owl needs no introduction. You've seen it everywhere. It easily defeated newcomer Black and White Owl, then the loveable devil Short Eared Owl, and just now, it stopped Flammulated Owl in its rise to owl notoriety. Snowy Owl has made it look almost too easy.

Will this perennial icon hold on to the crowd today, or will Buffy's unsuspecting charms win the day? Vote now!

Gotta go for the resting sick-of-this-shit face of the Snowy Owl

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I like when they look like agitated Muppets.

[-] HotboxedSubmersible@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

I vote for Buffy's unsuspecting charm!

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I love all the pictures where it's in the greenery. I've said before, it reminds me of Baloo from Disney's Jungle Book, and those types of backgrounds really bring that out to me.

Snowy owl! It's a classic.

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

It sure is. Snowy is just so photogenic!

[-] HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

But the other one looks hilarious

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

That it does! They're both so superb!

[-] TinyLightShow@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Snowy owl has always been a favorite! It must win!

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

It looks like a lot of people agree with you!

[-] UtMan1988@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Love me some snow owl, but I gotta hand it to the Buffy fish. That is some loveable goofs she's got

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

They're both big and playful. It's hard to pick just one!

[-] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Snowy Owl sounds loveable but the French name is Harfang of the Snows which sounds badass

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Harfang means "hare catcher.". That is a cool name!

Very hard choice to make. The buffy is cute but the Snowowl is so much more majestic. Gotta go with the latter.

[-] spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

My vote goes to the BFO!

[-] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

The Buff is tough! He's making a comeback!
