See? It’s the silly males that are the showoffs.

I don’t know which is more flashy… the red feathers and blue chest, or the incredible white tail.

In fact, I thought maybe they weren’t even the same species, so one of them was not a parent to this brood.

But their heads are alike, and the mother would never tolerate an alien visitor, so I have to guess that dimorphism is strong in these birds…

And that Whitetail is probably the papa.

Yes?

our mountain blue birds have attracted the ‘paracitic’ black birds today. they are trying to break into the blues nest for a free ride. sure hope the blues can keep up their defense.

Not a forest in sight.
And the river is running the wrong way.

A digital montage of her art done by Robin Moline for Washington State University’s “Washington State Magazine” .
It was originally on the magazine’s 2010 fall cover.
The lake (which I’m presuming is meant to feed the river in the montage) does not appear in her original foreground artwork, so Happy³ is not wrong as the montage stands.

It has always seemed obvious to me that if you pick up something far away, where it’s small, and don’t look at it again till you set it down in front of you, it will be big.

Like, say, a car from across the street where it’s smaller than your hand. Just reach out and pick it up, and set it in your driveway.

If you watch it the whole time, it’ll stay small, like a toy car, so don’t peek.

I know you don’t understand but I think this guy does.

Finally.

Are you trying to say they’re not?

Well that’s not fair.

Maybe being a basset hound helps.

I’ve seen one! There is a exotic bird farm that has a permanent display at the Oregon state fair and they bring in pheasants from the farm.

I can’t see jokes about the trombone without thinking of the MythBusters.
The one with the explosive in the bell/mute.

They exploded the mute to see whether it would make the slide blow off?

I thought of that as well. I love the Mythbusters and one nice thing about being off last week was getting to watch a few reruns.

It’s called a slide trombone, Cleo… not a flying projectile trombone.

You have to stop ordering everything you need from Missiles ‘Я’ Us, even if they do take your credit card.

True.

Just maybe lay off the exploding chocolate, and the musical instruments?

Use     BUTTERMILK (link),      I’ve done it (as you’ll see), and you’ll have very tasty buttermilk biscuits.

Did you notice that Snidely Whiplash tied Dudley’s left finger in the knot and it was his right finger in the next scene and then back to left finger when he’s talking to the inspector?
