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.

Whoever that was that posted the Dutch name for the Snowy Owl has my eBird settings set to Dutch now for everything! ๐
Seems the White Faced Scops is called Noordelijke Witwangdwergooruil. Google says that means "Northern White-cheeked Scops Owl."
