I was sitting by my doorway when some yard birds asked if I would help them with their passport photos. These are notoriously head-on shots without a smile.
Black-capped Chickadee: “I don’t like it; you made me look like an egg with feet.”
Steller’s Jay: “I never cross the border, so why, when close, do I get bills for use of another country’s data plan?”
Red-breasted Nuthatch: “I must fly to live, but I fear that my black bandit mask might get me on a no-fly list.”
Precious close-ups.
Touche. Those are hilarious. Precious, but, with the commentary – spot on – hilarious.
