BABY BIRDS!

Miss Diane up in America's Dairyland has a link to their local electrical energy monopoly's website, where there is a photo show of some baby peregrine falcons they're taking care of.

Miss Janis takes note of this, and says that Possumblog should once again sponsor another contest like the one we did two years ago. It was noted then that ANOTHER set of baby peregrine falcons looked like band musicians, or something, and the similarity to the current Wisconsinoraptors is strikingly similar. Vis.:

THEREFORE, it seems appropriate to have the BIENNIAL "NAME THAT JUVENILE PEREGRINE FALCON BAND CAPTION CONTEST!"

Yay.

The winner(s) will be announced this afternoon sometime, so time is short. As in the inaugural edition of the contest, prizes will consist of a variety of imaginary things that I carry with me in my pockets, such as this Six Flags Over Akron pen, this pencil eraser, this jar of frogs in formaldehyde, and a plug of Old Bloodhound chewing tobacco. All decisions by the judge(s) will be final, unless protest(s) is (are) accompanied by hefty monetary bribe(s), or offer(s) to cut my grass(es).

So, on your marks, get set, CAPTIONATE!

(And no, this time I have no idea what group they most look like. Although Poison comes pretty close.)

Charlie the parrot says to call them "The Hunky Boys."

Here's an old pic of the British punk band, the Buzzcocks.

Maybe these bad boys could be the "Fuzzcocks."

At the risk of trying to one-up Janis' last entry (yow!), I humbly submit:

The Fuzzy Weevils again answer the question of "What song is it you wanna hear?" when they warm up another edition of "Free Bird".

That little guy on the left looks like a keyboardist to me.

And if we can have a band called Headroom, surely we can have one called "Footroom" (specializing in dance rhythms).

They do have some big feet.

I'd suggest calling them the "Eaglets" and letting them sing "Hotel California."
