Top Tweets for #fluffenchops2020
Coincidentally, I did I little presso about Gang-gangs in an interview today and mentioned that they came second in the #Fluffenchops2020 competition, indicating that people all around the world are aware of them and care about them.
Fun times.
For whoever ends up doing this, here’s the tweet for the final #Fluffenchops2020 results. Also, don’t forget to spell my name properly 😜
THAT'S IT! The votes are in and the #Fluffenchops Champion for 2020 is the illustrious Kākāpō!
It was close for a while, but those green cheeks don't lie!
🏆1st - Kākāpō
🏆2nd - Gang-gang cockatoo
🏆3rd - Yellow-tailed Black-cockatoo
Thanks for playing #Fluffenchops2020 👑
Though I did see that the Kākāpō page also has an “In the Media” section and #Fluffenchops2020 could definitely go there too!
Can someone please edit this to add “Winner of the #Fluffenchops2020 Championship”?
Technically it was all Kākāpō, but given @Spokesbird represents all Kākāpō I reckon it should be listed on his Wiki page.
I LOVE IT WHEN animals have an occupation listed in their wikipedia infobox
If anyone at #ESASCBO2022 needs any #Fluffenchops inspiration, please check out the #Fluffenchops2020 hashtag. I ran a whole competition for fluffenchops back in 2020. As you do 😅
Some excellent Galah #Fluffenchops feature Rd on @meghaniamh top-notch talk on how people respond to wildlife images and how this impacts their conservation responses.
How does the photo make you feel?!

Did I just put a link to #Fluffenchops2020 and #BirdsWithPantsOFF into a job application?
YOU BET YOUR FLUFFY PANTS I DID!
I also mentioned #BorbOfTheYear but have nothing to link to yet. If Twitter survives I'll run it soon. Maybe around xmas when I have a break from work?
ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE?!

Classic #Fluffenchops on this Sulphur-crested Cockatoo. I’m kinda surprised they didn’t win #Fluffenchops2020.
The red-tailed black-cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii) is well on its way to a Grand Slam, having won #BestOfCrest in 2021 and now #Cockatoo2022! (For those keeping score, C. banksii was knocked out of #Fluffenchops2020 in the quarter finals by the eventual winner, the kākāpō.)
There are 22 species of cockatoos, but only one can be the #BestCockatoo…
Congratulations to the Red-Tailed Black Cockatoo, champion of #Cockatoo2022! 👑🖤👑🖤👑

Have you been missing the fun of #Fluffenchops2020?
Never fear! #Cockatoo2022 is here!
In a strange turn of events a non-Cockatoo won Best #Fluffenchops (those pesky Kākāpō can’t leave well enough alone), but now the cockies have a chance to shine all by themselves!
GO VOTE!!!
We will start by determining the top cockies for each group: the true white cockatoos, the corellas, the black cockatoos & the misfits.
Your vote in the polls below will decide who makes it to Round 2 of #Cockatoo2022 tomorrow, so choose wisely.
The gang-gang was 2nd place champion of @_erikaroper’s #Fluffenchops2020, 3rd place winner of @GuardianAus/@BirdlifeOz #BirdOfTheYear 2021 and round 3 finalist of @alexevans91’s #BestOfCrest.
However, they were #1 this year in @parrotoftheday’s heart /4

The gang-gang cockatoo - well one particular gang-gang - was our own personal #BirdOfTheYear over the last 12 months. Here's the story of our unexpected visitor Stanley, as told to the @UrbanFieldNats Project https://t.co/FjYy09WpBh
@HonkIfUrHoary Excuse me! What about #Fluffenchops2020, #BirdsWithPantsOFF, and soon to start #BorbOfTheYear?!
@ParrotOfTheDay @Aitch_El @suepennicuik Yes, many people have said that they have learned about new species and behaviours from participating in past comps (#Fluffenchops2020 and #BirdsWithPants). Plus, they are a good distraction from things like lockdown.
@kirstyjean I used #Fluffenchops2020, #BirdsWithPantsOFF, and #BorbOfTheYear as examples of communication/community engagement in a job interview recently.
@HonkIfUrHoary Stay tuned for bird comps! #BestOfCrest is coming up in July and #BorbOfTheYear will be soon too.
Past comps are #Fluffenchops2020 and #BirdsWithPantsOFF
I had a job interview today and was able to use #Fluffenchops2020, #BirdsWithPantsOFF, and #BorbOfTheYear as examples of successful communications projects I’ve run.
So thank you everyone! These competitions wouldn’t be possible without you all!
Just a reminder that if you want to vote in Twitter poll bracket let comps with cool animals I run a couple and will probably do more in the future. Check out #Fluffenchops2020 and #BirdsWithPantsOFF for past comps. It’s super fun and much less confusing than the mammal one.
THAT'S IT! The votes are in and all the other contenders were thoroughly pantsed by the tiny Booted Racket-tail!
Congrats to our #BirdsWithPantsOFF 2021 Champ!
🏆1st - Booted Racket-tail
🏆2nd - Red-capped Manakin
🏆3rd - Lammergeier
Thanks for playing #BirdsWithPantsOFF 👑
I know how much time and energy it takes to properly credit photos in brackets and polls (see #Fluffenchops2020 and #BirdsWithPantsOFF). Yes, it’s a hassle, but it’s necessary. Especially for in #SciComm. People will want to know more. How can they fact-check without a source.
@ParrotOfTheDay @NickEvershed @naamanzhou @_LisaMCox @Twitchathon @BirdlifeOz @GuardianAus For those who missed out on #Fluffenchops2020 we’re back with a much more diverse #BirdsWithPantsOFF!
I’d love it if you all participated and shared 😸
Bird Pants make everything better.
