Cartoon Saturday

Okay, okay ... I'll come out from under the covers long enough to give you your weekly cartoon fix ...

The International Union for the Conservation of Nature added the beautiful migrating monarch butterfly to its “red list” of threatened species and categorized it as “endangered” — a designation two steps from "extinct;" the latest hearing of the House committee investigating the January 6th insurrection demonstrated that Der Furor did nothing to call off the mob attacking the Capitol and threatening to murder the Vice President, choosing instead to watch the violence on Fox News from his private dining room in the White House; electrical utilities across the US are struggling to keep up with the demand caused by a heat wave of historic proportions; a man was arrested and charged with attempted assault after attacking Representative Lee Zeldin, the Republican candidate for New York governor, with a knife at a campaign rally; and in India, the Chief Minister of Punjab state was admitted to the hospital after he drank a glass of water from a heavily-polluted holy river in a seriously misguided attempt to demonstrate it was safe.

Because most of our national political news is for the birds, I thought this week I'd post a collection of cartoons about - of course - birds ...

Polly wants a keyboard ...  

Clever! ...

What a show-off ...

Because of course it does ...

Trouble in the nest ...

I always wondered how they decided on their positions ...

Oops ...

Sample collection ...

I guess I'm not the only one who does that ...

Good question! ...

And that's your bird's-eye view for Cartoon Saturday ... I hope it gave you a chuckle to help you cope with the past week and helped get you ready for the one to come.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts coming.
