A Lazi Bunting

How are doing today everyone?  Just had my humor for the day reading about and viewing all the pictures from our precious Democrat politicians wining and dining with Russian ambassadors.  Suspect the Trump trauma is so severe that the hypocrites have suffered some serious long term memory loss.  That doesn’t bring out the smiles as much as when they come back and try to cover their lies. Kind of reminds me when Democratic Rep. Diana DeGette tried to explain how high capacity magazine bans will reduce gun crime.  Let’s all relish in this classic statement.  “I will tell you these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those know they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.”  Yes, folks, when realization hit that she has opened her mouth and proven to the world she has no idea what she is trying to legislate on we get the hilarious response from her office,” she simply misspoke in referring to ‘magazines’ when she should have referred to ‘clips,’ which cannot be reused because they don’t have a feeding mechanism”.  Sorry, I just fell off my chair laughing again.  All you handgun owners with clip feeds are going to be in big trouble.

In honor of the brunt of this humor, thought I would follow up my last birding post with a B[r]unting (hey, I heard that groan all the way over here!).

That loyal readers is called a Lazuli Bunting. Like the last post on the Phainopepla, this Bunting also represents a new check in my North American Bird List.  Starting to get a respectable number now in a desperate attempt to keep up with my brother Ron’s tallies.  I have benefited significantly from his recent introduction into the bird blogging arena – you may not be aware, but we have a birding rule between us that doesn’t allow us to count a new bird on our lists unless we have posted about it first on our blogs.  Don’t feel sorry for him though, he was properly warned before taking on this new responsibility.   These last two posts alone would put me at 2/3rds of his new (post blog) bird count heheheh.
