White Faced Scops walked into this tournament like a true champion, and none of its competition has yet to present much of a challenge. This owl just looks good. It’s got the ears, it’s got a prominent mustache, captivating orange eyes, and a trendy monochromatic color scheme. He’s so far untouchable, but we’ve got a tiny owl coming in for a sneak attack!
The wee Saw Whet has been very accomplished these last two weeks. It’s taken on the Barred Owl, the pescatarian Buffy Fish Owl, and it just out-greated the Great Horned Owl. This itty bitty owl has shown it’s got big, big heart. It’s small, it’s expressive, it’s got a lot of unique looks, and it’s uncommon, but not as exotic to most of us as the Scops.
Will the Scops march unopposed to the finals, or has it finally met its match? Will the Saw Whet’s winning streak keep going? I dunno, that’s what you guys are here to tell me! Upvote your choice for the finals now!
I just found out we have a wedding to go to in the Bronx next year, and just when I was replying to you earlier I was looking who in the tri-state area had a WFS, and the Bronx Zoo was one of them!
I hope to see that little guy!
The National Aviary I visited early this year got a new one this fall as well, but that is further away.
Gotta get me some Scops!
Lucky! I need to check if there are any kept in The Cities
Do it! Chase your dreams!
