Both entrants today have had very solid campaigns so far. The Great Horned beat the Sooty and then had a major win against the beloved Burrowing Owl. Saw Whet got past the Barred Owl and the well liked Buffy Fish Owl. No one could deny either if these owls has a place in the final four.
Great Horned is a legend. Large and powerful with a bellowing hoot. The mightiest hunting owl of the Americas. They have a 5ft / 1.5m wingspan, and only the Snowy outweighs it. Ask someone to describe an owl to you, and they will likely describe to you the mighty Great Horned.
Saw Whet is short and sweet. It’s one of the smallest owls, with a chirping call that is quite unique. Though small, its diet is more similar to an owl like the Great Horned than the diet of other small owls. The charming face belies wonderful hunting talent. It migrates to follow its opportunities for success, and that’s what it’s looking to do today.
Who will be your third banner owl and semi-finalist? Upvote them now!
Not Pixar, but there is a Disney/Titmouse movie this year based on the Saw Whet from the Rockefeller tree the other year!
I haven’t gotten to see it yet.
Thanks for the reminder! I had forgotten about this.
That’s what I’m here for!
