This high-flying single-panel comic spotlights and savors the foibles, stupidity, and goofiness of our colorful unnatural world. It's all about attitude, as the denizens of Bluemel's realm devote themselves to surviving life's pitfalls, whether nesting in quicksand or coping with the technological advances of the tapeworm. From word play to fowl play, from weirdness in the wilderness, to the irony of iron ore, Birdbrains makes the offbeat seem natural. It's a feature to laugh at: if it makes you think, you're working too hard.

‘nother bird on the cave wall.
DAZZ & The Blue, from yesterday’s comments — there’s some chance being a past president of the local Audubon Society had something to do with getting me in here the first time. Liking the comics, of course, kept me coming back.

Great comments from DAZZ & Thom yesterday! I started reading the BirdBrains because it was funny. Then, because it was about Birds…………..we have binocs sitting on the windowsill of our den facing the bird feeder…………We have sooooo many sightings, and they put on quite a show.
Oh, and secretly, I love the faces Thom puts in his drawings the best. He is so terrific!!!!

Oops………………..I see a “Snoopy”-like face next to the shrubbery.

Yeah, (well, to both comments) I saw that ‘snoopy’ but couldn’t decide if it was “enough there” to call.
