Thanks, I was already wondering about the first (Latin) part of the name. The literal translation of dwerg-oor-uil is dwarf eared owl. Is that the same as scops Owl? Maybe the Ponderosa part doesn’t refer to the trees either, but to Flammy’s fanbase right now; it’s getting quite large now!
If you’re still not sure who to vote for, you should know that Flammy’s Dutch name is absolute fire: Ponderosadwergooruil!
Screech Owl is such a great owl, but I’m fully committed to BFO’s cause by now. They’re just so glorious and perfect as the representative of the Superbowl community. Go BFO! (Image from a video geniously called “Blakiston’s Fish Owl” by Ray H)
Oof! SEO definitely needs some propaganda! They need to overcome a 20 point gap right now! But who knows, the day is still long. Thanks for helping the OOP in getting some well-deserved attention, to stop the hegemony of the Snowy Owl.
I must say I expected to read some bad stuff about Verreaux, but digging up a corpse and sending it to another country is on another level of “not okay”. I appreciate that you try to keep out politics. I follow politics quite well, but sometimes it’s nice to have something apolitical as well.
You made a post about this a while ago, didn’t you? I completely forgot about these renamings! I’m also curious what will happen to the names in other languages. In Dutch, my native language, they translated the name from English: I think they’ll rename that too, but I don’t know for sure. Also, that Audubon guy doesn’t seem to deserve the organization being named after him. Ironic indeed!
