Today’s post is this month’s Funny Friday, a regular feature published on the last Friday of every month. Funny Friday is a collaborative project. Each month one of the participants submits a picture, then we all write 5 captions or thoughts inspired by that month’s picture. Links to the other bloggers’ posts are below, click on them and see what they’ve come up with. I hope we bring a smile to your face as you start your weekend.
1. Harry Hawk: Are you finally ready to go? I've been waiting for you forever.
Hazel Hawk: That depends. Do I look fat in these feathers?
2. Harry Hawk: What is that song those humans are playing?
Hazel Hawk: It sounds like Fly Like an Eagle.
Harry Hawk: Well that's just insulting.
3. Harry Hawk: What are you looking at?
Hazel Hawk: That TV in the window down there.
Harry Hawk: Why?
Hazel Hawk: I'm looking for someone I know.
Harry Hawk: What?
Hazel Hawk: They keep talking about some guy, must be a cousin, but I don't see any birds at all.
Harry Hawk: Why do you think he's a cousin?
Hazel Hawk: That little guy, they call him Radar, keeps saying he's going to go get Hawkeye.
4. Hazel Hawk: I'm tired of hunting, I'm going back to the nest.
Harry Hawk: But we haven't eaten yet.
Hazel Hawk: I'm too tired for take-out, can't you just splurge and do delivery for once?
5. Harry Hawk: Jeez, woman, you need to get those talons trimmed. You add a whole new meaning to "love hurts."
