Aren't those eagles, who are also predators?

Edit: found a fun fact about owls:

Owls eat other animals, from small insects such as moths or beetles, to large birds, even as large as an Osprey.

Whatever type of birds these are (maybe whiteheads?) they are in for a rude awakening someday!

That's apart of the joke, yes

[–] [email protected] 54 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Yes, that's the point I believe. (:

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Hmm, it would make more sense if they were a different type of bird, one thag might actually interact with mice instead of eating them. A bit redundant as is.

Oh well, 99/100 of Nathan Pyle's comics I love, so I'm okay that this one is a miss for me lol.

Is it because they’re bald, and we shouldn’t make fun of bald people?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

Kinda makes you think

I thought they were Seagulls and was confused.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Seagulls are also predators. Not quite apex, but fairly high in the chain.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Seagulls are in a whole other league

Wouldn't that make more sense? Eagles wouldn't talk to mice, they'd eat them.

I think a songbird would have made sense since they share bird feeders with the mice lol

Let's reframe this a moment -

Wealthy person 1 "you ever go hungry?"

Wealthy person 2 "no, not at all"

Wealthy person 1 "I have no idea what that poor person was complaining about."

Interesting interpretation, Nathan Pyle doesn't usually do political comics though. I think this one is just supposed to be fun.

For good reason lol. But still, not sure how someone could make this and not see something more in it.

If you've ever heard the call of an eagle it sounds a hell of a lot like a seagull

The fact that in a lot of media eagles are dubbed over because they don't sound "cool" enough makes me giggle every time I hear it

Damn you're right
