Frazz by Jef Mallett for December 18, 2024

Not logical thinking?

Hummers eat insects, too. Maybe that’s what’s missing in his diet…

I’ll pass on that, thank you very much (even covered in chocolate as they do in some countries).

And if a hummingbird tried to eat your typical meal, I doubt it would feel like flying too.

The missing factor here is that the bird spreads that out over the whole length of daylight … not one sitting.

Some very strange themes in recent weeks. H-m-m-m

Maybe it’s not the sugar and water, but the phosphoric acid.

Let’s face it, he’s just not flapping his arms fast enough!

I just flew in from LA and boy are my arms tired.

I think it’s the dye

Fun fact: If we humans had hummingbirds’ metabolic requirements, scaled up to human size and mass, we would need to eat the sugar equivalent of two thousand Oreo cookies a day simply to maintain our weight.

A couple of pizza slices will do strange things.

You need to flap your arms at least 60 times a second.

So that ad line about Red Bull isn’t true? Hmmm…

I love hummingbirds and dragonflies, in myth if you see a hummingbird soon after someone has died, it means they have successfully made it to the other side. Dragonflies only live 24 hours and their one very important job is to carry souls to heaven.

I think he’d die before actually drinking half his body weight in one day.
