In our December issue, we feature this funny photo of a female cardinal losing her footing and sliding down the roof of this feeder. Thanks to Chantel Oliver of Fairfield, Ohio, for catching, and sharing, this comical moment!
We want to hear your clever caption for this photo. We’ll use some of the best suggestions in our upcoming February/March issue. Thanks and have fun!

A little more practice and I’ll be ready for the ski jump try-outs for the next Olympics!

“Hubby said he wanted the roof cleaned. This is NOT what I expected either!”
“I am not a chimney sweep!”
Be quiet! I’m practicing my landings!

Red: “I’ll give that landing a 9.5″
Are you sure this is how Santa Claus does it?
I knew I would catch you eating again, if I slid in.
I told you this airport had a short landing strip!
Is this what they really mean by “slippery slope”?

I know you’ve been waiting a long time but I’m waiting for the next ski chair lift to come by.
“This ski slope isn’t half as good as we thought it would be- no wonder it was so cheep! At least the food doesn’t make the reason it’s free obvious.”
This is great! Next time I’m a gonna go down head first!
I thought you said we wouldn’t need snowshoes!!
Oops. Pilot error. Slid off the runway again.
“What happened to my landing gear?”
“Honey, what on earth are you doing? It doesn’t look like that’s sanitary!”

“Hang on Lucy, hang on!”
“I just walked in from Wenatchee, and Boy, are my feet tired!”
I can’t beleive this is happening to me. I am so embarressed.
Have I finally reached the ski lodge?!
Coach, do you think I am ready for the 2016 Olympic games?
Up on the rooftop…click, click, click…it’s so…slick, slick, slick!
DO YOU PROMISE TO CATCH ME?
“I see Paris, I see France, I see so-and-so’s underpants.”
“I told you that first step was a doozie”
“Whoa, where are your skis”
singing “Upon the Roof” room enough for two.
Ok…enough already…you’re filling the feeder tray full of snow.
For the February/March issue “Blowing in the Wind”. My caption is “Honey, do you think these

Whee! Look at me – I’m skiing!
Male: Hahaha! I told you it was slippery!
Cool! Me next! Me next!
