"iIT'S A BIRD'S WORLD" VOLUME 9

Terrific shots and captions, Dave.

Thank you GP and thank you Kim. I am going through some of my pictures of BB fledglings from last year and some of them are almost hilarious. (At least to me). I don't have the gift for captions that you and some of the others on this forum have, but some of the pictures almost speak for themselves.

You must get so much joy out of watching these little ones.

Dave, I think your captions are hilarious! And your photos are wonderful. The two parter really cracked me up.

Patti

Yes, GP I do enjoy them so very much. Patti, here is a six parter.

Heeeeeheeeee. Wonderful Dave! ^_^

Whether it's one or 2 or six "parter". I love them all. Thank you Dave for sharing your joy with us. Everyone here did a wonderful job. I don't know how to create the caption. But I do enjoy everyone else's work. I consider myself very lucky. :))

Wonderful pics and captions Dave!

That's really cute Dave!

I know this one of Gracie on a rainy day is a bit off topic, but ...

I just love, love that one. lol what a character! Gracie? Buster's sibling?

Dave, That's so cute!

Aww, that is sweet! Get her glasses Dave! :-))

Yes, Kim, We originally planned to get just the male but when we went over to pick him up, he and this little female were the only two kittens left and well, since they seemed inseparable, why break up the set? Absolutely no regrets. She is the sweetest thing. Buster is bigger and outweighs her by a couple of pounds but their markings are very similar and we still get them confused if they are not together.

A happy Cormorant

What's he happy about, Margaret? Cooler weather?

I wish, GP. There's no sign of autumn yet and winter is only three weeks away. Our maxima are still between 25C and 30C (77-86F). And still no rain!

I thought for sure your weather would ne nicer by now.

I love your happy cormorrant. Wish the drought will soon be over for you.

I'm sure this cycle will pass. Compared to the weather events other places are experiencing worldwide, I have nothing to complain about.

Ha, cute one Adel!

Cute Cormorant comic Margaret! Fantastic photo.

Adel, The hummer comment is hilarious. Now if he was just riding a bike. ^_^

Some birds are slow learners.

LOL, poor Grosbeak!

^_^ Good one!

I don't think she could have gotten anymore. Look at the big chunk at the end of her beak!

LOL! She is stocking up for a rainy day. What a cool backyard bird to have!

I couldn't stop laughing on that little gal. So much like me in a way when I tried to lose weight with an appetite for an elephant. lol.

These Mexican Jays were very curious. They would come very close and just watch us whenever we went out on the porch of our cabin in Big Bend National Park. When we didn't fork over any food, they would squawk loud and get even closer.

Photo edited: In addition to adding the caption I also removed a few stray branches in the photo.

LOL, very cute!

Well done, Patti.

These White-faced Ibis were quite comical to watch. There were probably 15 or 20 in this one small pond. I did some serious pond skimming to clean up this photo and focus on the birds and text.

I'd love to see more funnies!

Too funny Patti!! Perfect for this time of the year too!!

Here's one from last summer...fledgling Barn Swallows learning how to fly!!

Oh, Rose! That is absolutely hilarious. The expression on the face of the one in the foreground perfectly matches your words.
Thanks for making my morning!

Good ones Patti and Rose!

Just love it. Nice job Rose and Patti.

What a great bunch of comedians. I'm glad I found this thread and forum.

Welcome mnshutterbug! And what a great way to start out. That is so funny. And a lovely photo too!

Patti

Thanks. I'm having a tough time finding humorous shots in my archives. It does remind me of my wife and me some days. :)

Here's one I took a couple years ago. I remembered it but couldn't find it on either of my computers so I had to run a rescue program and found it on one of my cards.
