Update: Winners of Round 2

  • Philippine Scops
  • Milky Eagle
  • Mottled Wood
  • Boreal
  • Dusky Eagle
  • Indian Scops
  • Buff Fronted
  • Black Banded

The votes of Round 1 are in, and these are the owls moving on to the tournament:

  • Long Eared
  • Crested
  • Eurasian Eagle
  • Great Horned
  • Barred
  • Oriental Bay
  • Barking
  • Spectacled

Thanks for all your votes. You made some good choices. Tawny is the one I’m saddest to see go, they look so gentle and loveable, but there is always next year and any other time I find a good picture.

It’s time to select the final 8! There are a lot of owls we have to seen very much of, possibly a few we’ve never had featured before. Let me know who you like, and then I can get our bracket set up.

Rules are simple and the same as before: simply upvote which you like.

Vote for one or two, vote for all, vote for none, the choice is yours.

Downvotes do not count.

Ladies and gentlemen, the choices are yours. Let’s see those votes! I’ll leave this open for a week again.

    I forgot to ask if the hash tags federated properly this time.

    I had first done “#superbowl #owloftheyear” as you had suggested last time, but it seemed to just make the font larger for the “superbowl” part while putting the hash on the OOTY part, so I just put in a spare hash “# #superbowl #owloftheyear” to make it show up in a way that looked correct.

      Well hashtag written from Lemmy don’t work perfectly well as of today. But you did everything you can and I’ve been boosting your superbowl post with my Sharkey account. Let’s now just hope that owl lovers will find it because I don’t have a big plateform.
