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.

    Aw yeah, that’s a real working person’s owl right there.

    You know he’s got a 35-year old pickup truck next to the garage he’s kept running for decades despite the inside being full of receipts and wrappers and an ashtray full of change.
