Caption Contest #11


Here's one to ponder while you're in that tryptophan-induced nod...it's the Bill of the Birds Caption Contest #11!

Send us your clever caption for this image, using the Comments window below. Our team of highly compensated pointyheads will select a winner on Friday, November 27, 2009.

The fabulous prize for the winner of this contest is a copy of the mind-expanding book "Good Birders Don't Wear White." More on that later...

Good luck!

    Editor of Birdwatchers Digest photographed hazing an intern, forcing her to provide him constant shade while in the field.

    “NASA reports that the reflection off my head is contributing to global warming. I just see this as another example of the green movement providing new job opportunities” responded Bill Thompson III.

    Honestly the ad said it was guarenteed to grow hair using veiled solar rays in just 6-12 hours!

    By sheer luck and excellent timing, his assistant was able to catch the giant, flying, rogue tablesaw in midair just before it would've assuredly sliced Bill in half!

    Now you can focus the sun's rays to get that quick long-lasting tan you always want in minutes, with the new portable 'Jimdandy Tanner' from Ronco. (...and if you order in the next 15 minutes, we'll throw in a pocket fisherman for free!)

    Bill, hold still. A cute little roadrunner sold me this ACME magic hole, and I want to see if it can REALLY make us disappear!
