It’s down to Sheryl Crow and Beaky.

Bird on the street is… our “coolest crow contest” is too close to call. After a week of voting for six finalists, two reader-submitted corvids are deadlocked: Sheryl Crow and Beaky. 👏

While they’re both winners in our books, for the sake of cool clarity, we’ve decided to do a run-off. Select your favorite — and we’ll crown an ultimate victor (for real this time) next Thursday.

Two crows side-by-side — the one on the left is named Sheryl Crow, the one on the right is named Beaky.

It’s so hard to choose just one of these beautiful faces.
