Perhaps we have a misunderstanding here on the purpose of this forum.
 
he's been here a year, I think he gets the forum. I think it's probably more a case of him being bored.
 
Hahahaha! See? I knew a thread like this was coming! :D
I got the poster wrong though.

There goes my philosophy thread. :D
 
There's several more like it.

Personally, I might start a poll thread asking which is better the Northern Beardless Tyrannulet or the Rose-Throated Becard.
 
what would be the point of that? Obviously it's the rose-throated becard.

I cannot believe you ranked the Dama gazelle ahead of the Mountain gazelle. What were you thinking?:) Also, why no love for Mongalla gazelles?
 
I can't believe you've missed the opportunity for a well placed apostrophe. Thomson's can't be no 1 because I've heard of them so they are obviously really common.

Yes it does seem obvious looking at them. (Although I hadn't even heard of either of these until now, thanks google images).

The only mistake in the list I can see is that Dorca's gazelle is incorrectly spelt.
 
What, no love for Procapra gazelles? What about all the Groves and Grubb species?

I am tempted to think that that was deliberate on Ituri's part -- i.e. a poll to decide which of the two is better would be as pointless as, erm, this thread, because the becard obviously is. But then I remembered that us birders are a funny lot, so he may for some reason think the northern beardless tyrannulet is better. He is of course entitled to that opinion, even if it is wrong :D
 
haha very true.


You all know that ungulate nerd is going to log on and think "oh wow, 14 replies to my thread, that is awesome!", then open it and go "you lot all suck!!"
 
You guys are obviously way off. If we are talking the best Tityridae than it is obviously the White-browed Purpletuft...duh Ituri. eye roll
 
I see.

So the poll went like this:

Which of these two birds do you think is best?
1) Northern Beardless Tyrannulet
2) Rose-throated Becard
3) Red-necked Grebe
D) none of the above

I think that's the best poll on Zoochat ever.
:D
