Pilsner goes a little too far in thinking about his ancestors, in part two of the Monty story arc from last year:

Today we start a rare six-part story arc from last year of the strip Monty, which features a parrot character named Pilsner but only infrequently plays off the fact that he is a parrot. This arc is an instant classic, in my opinion. Enjoy.

Today, a Cheezburger captioned photo that I saved way back in 2011.

The Mutts story arc from one year ago concludes with Mooch successfully returning the non-fledged bird to its nest ... just in time for a parent bird to show up, skeptical of a cat's intentions.

And now (with apologies to fans of the late Douglas Adams) the fifth episode in what I originally announced as a four-part Mutts story arc from one year ago today.

Part four of last year's Mutts story arc wraps up our month.  (There will be a part five and six tomorrow and Monday; when I set up my posting schedule I failed to look forward into May to see if the story arc continued ... and it did.)

All I could think of when I first saw this strip is my own Mickaboo budgie Chaos, who never learned to fly and makes his share of "landings" as a result.

Part three of the Mutts baby bird story from a year ago. Today the strip's main character Mooch the cat enters the picture (and in the Mutts universe, cats do not eat birds):

Part two of the Mutts story arc from last year on a baby bird leaving the nest.

A four-part Mutts story from last year on a baby bird leaving the nest ends the month, starting with this strip from April 27.

This Strange Brew is actually from April 22, 2013, but we were finishing up a multi-part sequence on that day, so you get it today instead.  It isn't any less funny for the delay, thank heavens.  ("Penguin. James Penguin.")
