Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for February 28, 2015
Transcript:
Lacey: I'm sorry you didn't see your warbler, Dick. Dick: It doesn't matter, dear. The true birder cares more about being out in the sweet, spring air than adding to his list! Besides, he's almost always rewarded by some special moment! Hardly a day goes by when I don't come upon a songbird pouring forth, in Shelley's words, his "full heart of profuse strains of unpremeditated art." Lacey: Do all birders have bedroom eyes, dear heart? Dick: Hee, hee! Who says this day was a loss?
