For owls that are superb.

San Franciscowl had a pretty dominant command of things. I liked the owls on the Screech and green they should have gotten more votes than they did, but they're all good really.

It was pretty crazy doing this many pics in 2 days. I appreciate you guys that did enjoy this. I'm not a sports person, but it seemed a fun thing to do, though not everyone may have agreed.

We had a lot of owls that were likely new to most of you, I'm curious what your favorite ones were that you weren't familiar with?

I certainly appreciate that you guys appreciated it. I saw a good number of regular commenters pop in, which is the most important to me. I find the contributions you guys make to be just as important as what I do. I'd like this group to keep growing of course, but I'd prefer 10 more of you guys that comment to 1000 lurkers. It's no fun when I'm just talking to myself.

I like Pharaoh as a desert camo version of the GHO. Galapagos is way cool too, he's so dark and looks like such a tough guy compared to the glam look of the regular Shorty.

It's very neat to look at the diversity of owls and see their differences and how they've changed to fit openings they've found in the ecosystems over the millennia. With the environment rapidly changing, our local Owls may adapt or we may lose some and gain others as migration patterns or food sources change.

Every day I get a better appreciation for all that they are. They're amazing animals, and I'm glad that I decided to try to fill the gap here but giving you all these stories and pictures.
