From Adrian Di Vincenzo
Looking back through my archives late last year I found an image that I can’t believe I hadn’t seen earlier.
This juvenile Powerful Owl coming into the world with plenty to say. Could possibly be my favourite image yet of this wonderful species. What a moment I nearly missed!
Wait…
I think I can make out what it’s saying…
Yesssss, it sounds like:
“Hoo hasn’t subscribed yet for the most fun and educational source of owl news on the entire Fediverse?”
That must be it, since we’re just 6 subs short of hitting 6000!
There sure are a lot of owl fans here. I’m so glad you all enjoy seeing these photos and stories every day! 🦉❤️
Moooommmm!
That’s a big looking baby to keep happy!
I cannot imagine ever referring to this species as anything other than Powerfowl
The Aussies are supposed to be famous for their shortening of words, I think they could be persuaded.
Looking at the big list of Australian diminutives, they’d probably choose Powwo or Powwie. Hmmm… I think Powwowl could work!
But… But my power-fowl pun!
No, no! I love Powerfowl!
You saying that just got me to look up if they had a different name for it like McDonald’s is Macca’s but I didn’t find any and was a bit surprised. Then I looked at all the other names.
Powerfowl is most excellent as it works on multiple levels, as you said! I just wanted to participate in brainstorming a name too. 😇
