Another Stupid the Bird fill-in for Diamond Lil.  This recurring strip theme is the one parodied.

As Stupid the Bird continues to cover for Diamond Lil, a parody of this type strip in which Lil and Edna ogle Lil's next-door neighbor while he does yard work.

Stupid the Diamond Lil Bird, part four, and a variation on interacting with Edna at the kitchen table, as in this strip:

For example, Lil and her best friend Edna -- both senior citizens -- often interact while looking out the window, as in this strip (a parallel to this one).

Today through Monday, another Stupid the Bird saga as he fills in for the title character of Diamond Lil.  The man on the left is Lil's boyfriend Sam.

A 1973 Peanuts strip for everyone who, back in the day, mistook Woodstock for something other than a bird:

A Mutts strip themed for the day.
