WINNER: WHITE FACED SCOPS OWL 125-99
We’ve reached the final battle of the year!
Snowy Owl’s charms and grace have kept it in the upper echelon of owls for a very long time. They are elegant, they have a captivating personality, they are the only owl with primarily bright plumage. Truly a one of a kind owl.
White Faced Scops is a master of expression. From innocent to sinister, it has a look that embodies any emotion. It has a modern silverish grey wooden look. It’s got beautiful amber orange eyes. Long thick plumicorns. And of course, the trademarked moustache! It has so many features we love in owls, all in one amazing bird, yet it uniquely its own.

My thought is that the snowy owl wouldn’t even be in the running if it weren’t for its fame from the series. The white faced owl really stands on its own.
O RLY? Snowy Owl is excellent even without the Harry Potter boost. It’s pretty iconic among owls.
I think you’re both correct. Snowy gets lots of attention because it’s great, and it stays in people’s minds due to its constant exposure. It also makes it an owl we’re all familiar with around the world as well. Great Horned Owl is deservedly famous in North America. Tawny Owl is the popular owl in the UK. We don’t have Tawny and they don’t have GHO, so without TV, movies, memes, etc it’s more difficult for them to get ingrained in our hearts and minds.
Since this is the first tourney, I expected these results, but do you see ones like Buffy, Flammy, and Sooty who were pretty much unknown a month ago to not do even better next year? They’ve gotten your awareness now, and you’re going to look forward to seeing them posted on here again and to vote for them next year, because now they’re a part of your fandom even though you’ll probably never see one in person.
And that’s how I suckered youb all into loving even more owls so you care about them and their habits even more! Muhahaha!
