Owl of the Year Match 26 - Blakiston's Fish Owl vs Screech Owl

WINNER: SCREECH OWL 80-38

These are some very opposite owls from opposite parts of the world!

Blakiston's Fish Owl, the world's largest owl, has been impressive thus far. First, it eliminated the Tawny Owl. After that, it squeaked out a victory over the Goth-inspired Sooty Owls. Will this Japanese Kaiju be able to overpower such a universally loved owl like the Screech Owl?

Great camo, small round packaging, a beautiful tree bark patterns, a sweet, yet sulky expression with just enough humor, a beautiful singing voice, and devilish but innocent looking horns. This is the Screech Owl. It's a lot to live squeezed into a tiny, plump package. Will this little darling be able to hold out against BFO?

  • I vote for the BFO because he deserve more love than that but would have the score been secret, I would have not choose.

    • I hope Lemmy gets proper polling features by next year. This has worked out better than expected though, but I'd be curious to see if hiding the numbers would have made a difference. I feel it may have benefitted some underdogs though, which is good.

        Yeah definitely. I'm also waiting for this feature. Even tough vote on comment does part of the job, it's not perfect. We need to be able to hide vote, to differentiate btw normal comments and vote options and we need some operability with microblogging-style poll.

        • I do hope the development keeps going here. Everything already seems much improved from how it was back in the summer. The apps and Lemmy itself are both more useful and robust.
