Some tough battles were fought yesterday, and we sadly sat goodbye to 2 more very loved owls. Both matches came down to the end and we’re very close, so condolences to about half of you. I know I was rooting for the Flammy, his rise to fame has been very fun to watch develop.
But they’re not going far, we’ll be back to normal pics very soon! No pressure then, just happy clicks!
Any new thoughts on the contest or owl things in general?
Anything you’d like to see coming up?
I’ve got a few ideas for year end review stuff, but otherwise I’m just ready to wrap this contest up. It’s been super fun, but especially now, I don’t have any prep time since I need to know who wins before I can do anything, hence the re-used pic highlight reel for today. I’ll grab some new pics to add for all of them shortly.
Thank you! I always enjoy when you check in!
Go chicuatli!
Hahaha, that’s actually “tecolotl” the great horned owl. That’s the day bird for day mahtlactli (ten) which is the day bird of Tezcatlipoca (Smoking Mirror). See what I mean this stuff is complicated, kinda why I love it. Check it out the owls are day six and day ten on the border of this page/plate.
Hah, these guys sure took some artistic liberties with their designs. They’re all pretty awesome though. I’m sure tecolotl is hoping chicuatli avenges him though!
