The lying news media does it again.

Love both birds but we all know the real outcome here.

The d.blog bylaws should've designated a tiebreaking parliamentarian-type individual for this exact scenario (presumably a bird pecking at the photos). Good thing it's not called Democracy.Blog!

Given the craziness of this year's bracket, this seems like the only possible outcome. RIP Kakapo and Bushtit, your sacrifices in service of this nonsense final pairing are not in vain.

I voted Kestrel, but this is still the best possible result! Thank you all, and congratulations to every avian dinosaur, extant or otherwise!
