Alan Van Norman

This is the most original name they could come up with this guy…

Scientific name isn’t any better. Strix nigrolineata just means owl with black lines.

Zebra Owl, Newsprint Owl, Bandit Owl, Masked Owl

What name would you have given this owl?

      Couldn’t agree more!

      Have you been here for a while now, or did you follow me in from that other crazy thread with that one guy downvoting everyone? 😮‍💨 I saw your name a few times over over there.

          The thread about zoos being bad. Not that you were the person fighting with everyone, I thought you were one of the ones they were fighting with like they were with me too.

          I was just curious if you had seen me mention my posts over there and were new or if you had been coming here for a while already. Sorry if I was confusing!

            Ooooh lolol that thread

            Eh I dont overly hold it against them, they have no experience or knowledge about macrobio, and so they think zoos are non human torture prisons. I kinda get why they make the mistake, even if I wished they didnt.

            Tbh I have a hard time tracking usernames in lemmy due to the user/server thing. Im sure Ill get better with that the longer I use it

              Yeah, it’s ok to not understand, it’s just frustrating when someone is that close minded intentionally and makes bad faith arguments.

              Lemmy does have a lot of peculiarities for sure! I’ve just been back and forth between that thread and here today, so your name stood out to me when you commented.

              Continue enjoying the owls. I’m about finished drafting a post on feathers I’ll put up this weekend like the last mega post about talons.
