Speed Bump likens a bird feeder to a box of Cracker Jack:

I've always said the funniest single-panel toons are ones that anthromorphize common human traits, misconceptions, and clichés by using common traits and behaviors of the non-human.  This Loose Parts is a perfect example.

A quickie Stupid the Bird strip from Diamond Lil.

An early (pre-strip) single panel Tundra comic from several years back (I'm guessing 1992 or 1998 given the date of the strip and its punchline, since it predates the strip format).

Rhymes With Orange takes on parrots as a fashion accessory for pirates.

Today is the five-year anniversary of Bird Toon of the Day!

I have not calculated the exact number of cartoons that I've posted here since 2015, but taking into account the special Diamond Lil Thanksgiving story arcs which resulted in some two-toon days and also the handful of days where favorites were repeated, there have been a little over 1800 in that time.

Carpe Diem explains how penguins came to be non-flyers. Reminds me of a couple of the budgies I've had over the years, actually.

A pre-Woodstock (1966) bird leaves Snoopy non-plussed in this classic Peantus strip.
