Garfield by Jim Davis for February 29, 2024

Late to the party, are we?

That’s funny!

They leafed him alone!

Better late than never, but never late is better.

I’ve still got a few million of your friends in my back yard.

They all has leaves him alone.

I’ve got 3 small (about 10 ft) fur trees in my garden. They never seem to drop. This time of year they are full of Robins. They love these trees because cats and bigger birds can’t get into them because they’re so tightly packed.

Nice of Garf to leaf it alone.

A little late for the party.

What??? But it’s spring soon!

Yep, Fall was over months ago. Unfortunately. Not it is Mud. As in Summer, Fall, Winter, Mud. The four seasons here about.

:33 < poor leaf, left all alone without their furriends :c

When all his mates said they were leaving he thought they were being, like, REALLY leafy.

And then he turns around and sees all the Spring newcomers…

Happy Leap Day! Where are the leaves?

Must be a Pin Oak, those things hang on forever.

Yep. Everybody else got raked up and turned to mulch.

pov orfans

Happy Leap Year!

For some reason this reminded me of O. Henry’s “The Last Leaf”.

First Peanuts, now Garfield. What’s gonna be the next comic strip where trees can think?

Where I live, the sycamore tree in our yard still has some dead leaves attached to its branches.

There’s being fashionably late, and then there’s not falling till it’s almost time for fresh leaves to grow

This leaf was obv born on a leap year

You and me both Mr Leaf, ahh the wonders of Spring !

“Don’t rush me. Don’t rush me.”

The oaks shed in the spring.

Didn’t dress for it either.

What took you so long?

The leaf is either very late or very early for fall.

In my Mexico City neighborhood, there are lots of trees, and they seem to shed their leaves all year round.

No one told you when to run

You missed the starting gun
