WINNER: WHITE FACED SCOPS 63-52

White Faced Scops has had a similar time to the Snowy Owl. Lesser known, but widely recognized, it has beaten the large Spectacled Owl, the tiny Saw Whet Owl, and has just edged out another long time favorite, the Burrowing Owl. Whitey has been a bit of a dark horse, stacking up wins while still staying under everyone’s radar as to making it to the final 4 today. All eyes are on him now though.

The Screech Owl is lived by almost all. It has the angry potato charm of the little brown owls, but adds different colors, more heavily patterned plumage, and a pair of adorable plumicorns. It’s the last of the top 4 seeded owls to remain in the tournament. Will the Screechie be able to hold its own today, or will the White Faced take out the last of the original top 4?

    Do it! I didn’t know much about owls before this & have just been casually googling. A ‘guided tour’ of the history would be amazing.

      Ok! I’m planning to kick back a little after this, but I’ll bump it up on my to do list. It teaches me a lot too, so that’s a plus for me.
