(Haliaeetus pelagicus) It's been a while since I posted a steller's. They do look comical sometimes though!
If you recall, that is part of the lyrics taken from the song, The Surrey with the Fringe on Top," written by Rodgers and Hammerstein for "Oklahoma." That is what came to mind, when I posted this picture! Hope you don't mind my comical thoughts!
This nearly looks like a two-headed goose! ha! Sorry about that. The two geese just happened to be standing right beside each other! Hope you enjoy!

Saw this stunningl little Bloody-nosed beetle larvae while walking on the Coastal Path between Polperro and Lansallos, Cornwall, UK. I think it was sleeping/sunning itself, just less than long 1cm at rest, handheld, used an Olloclip macro add on lens @ 14x magnification and a Hisy remote for this shot. Gently tickled and cropped in 'Photos' on Mac.
Earlier in day we had actually seen the adult version moving slowly, plodding along the path, they are quite comical, they walk as if they have hobnail boots on that are far too big for them, lifting their legs high into the air, slowly and deliberately, one by one......just wonderful to watch!!! Only now after identification do I know what they are.....

The tufts on either side of a Double-crested Cormorant's head are usually not usually seen. This was mating season, and he was seemingly upset by the tuft of fuzz/feather that apparently stuck to the tip of its bill. So the "double crest" was wildly and comically apparent.

HAPPY – PHARRELL WILLIAMS
A very happy video full of happy people singing and dancing and a lot of happy fences – ENJOY!!
Guaranteed to make you smile on this Happy Fence Friday :-D
HAPPY FENCE FRIDAY : 0))
Happy Fence Friday to one and all
I am guarded by this hilarious court jester
he is wearing rather a Serious hat
because he's as bald as Uncle Fester
What do you mean you've no idea who that is
Surely you've seen the Addams Family
Well, I know he wasn't made up of old drainpipes
and U-bends with flexibility
but his eyebrows are peeling
his eyes are appealing
because he is left in the sun
he stands at the wayside guarding me well
but if a robber stops by he can't run
so quite what good he is proving to be
I really can't tell you for what
but he's company during the day and night
and he squirts me with water when I am hot
one night the alarm was tripped and went off
it was a burglary in progress
he tried to stop the getaway car
but it drove right through the gap between his legs!
People stop by just to take his photo
but today is all about me
so I wish Poppy had focussed more on ME the FENCE
and not on my friend just 'cos he's funny!!

I look outside my window, and star up to the stars,
I close my eyes, and softly share a thought,
For life is like a sentence, forever behind bars,
For there are darkened lessons to be taught,
The pains I feel are plenty, the screams I hear, so loud,
Is this all that my life has left for me?
See this is why I ponder, and stare right at a cloud,
And wish that there is right where I could be,
I long to travel higher, to reach, to soar, to fly,
Yet all my wishes crash right back to Earth,
But now it’s time for movement, no tears are left to cry,
This moment I have longed for, my rebirth,
So hear my heartfelt message, dream big and reach your goal,
Never falter at the sight hurt,
For we are all but angels, divine is each our soul,
And now it’s time we flew right out the dirt.

I'd like you to meet our resident UniHorn! He seems to have lost one of his antlers during the rut. That had to hurt! While I was photographing him, he winked at me. He knows he's special!
For Smile on Saturday theme 'I Love to...'
Snails are fascinating, entertaining, comical...and beautiful creatures. I find them much more engaging than the more popular birds and butterflies, with the added advantage that they don't move very fast! Photographing snails is always a challenge, requiring a great deal of patience and a compliant subject willing to perform for the camera.
No snails were harmed in the making of this photograph.
A burrowing owl as it was about to take off from a field. It seems to sway left and right, balance itself then a few hops before it took off so fast. I was glad I manage to get a good clear shot before it sped off.
They look so darn cute when they are coming in for a landing but try to capture this action was a real challenge. You just can not give up.. Love them and it was great fun to watch these comical little birds !
Wishing you a great afternoon and a very blessed one too !
This American White Pelican had a stretch and adopted what struck me as a comical stance showing the long wing and the large orange feet. This individual was still at Wyndham—Carseland Provincial Park in southern Alberta, Canada, in early September, but would soon be moving south for the winter.
Sometimes it's just impossible to catch a vole without a little grass getting in the way. In this particular image the female owl appears to have a grass mustache. Pretty comical. Flickr folks please left click for better detail.
This year we had a young White-tailed Prairie Hare (Lepus townsendii) frequent our backyard off the deck. Its antics were quite comical as it raced around a feeding adult as if it did not have a care in the world. I was so busy watching it race in circles and leap into the air that I decided to enjoy the moment rather than try to capture it digitally. The youngster when we first saw it was about one third the size of the adult with it but it has grown over the summer. This observation was in southwest Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Belted kingfisher (male). He seems to think there is something comical about me, as he flies by laughing that laugh. At
Wildwood Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Thank you for the visit!

I had just washed the crocheted doily. Guru was standing right there. Because he loves to peer through the mesh of our laundry bags, I wondered what he would do if I put the heavy, wet doily over his head.
He loved it.
Western Tanager
i happened to catch this guy just as he was landing and it looked more like a jump. I thought it was kind of comical so I posted it.
Gentoo Penguins (Pygoscelis papua). I watched this group of penguins for a while as they came along the beach, they were very comical with their swaggering gait!
Happy Holidays! A comical little photo. This holiday flatlay took a bit of time to set up and I got hungry....hence one leg missing.
Have a great holiday season all!

Needs to work on the camouflage - strikingly colourful and an almost comical appearance in the summer sunshine in Monks Wood in Cambridgeshire (UK) (6856)
A street performer mimicking passersby...
Mime has been performed on stage, with Marcel Marceau and his character "Bip" being the most famous. Mime is also a popular art form in street theatre and busking. Traditionally, these sorts of performances involve the actor/actress wearing tight black and white clothing with white facial makeup. However, contemporary mimes often perform without whiteface. Similarly, while traditional mimes have been completely silent, contemporary mimes, while refraining from speaking, sometimes employ vocal sounds when they perform. Mime acts are often comical, but some can be very serious.

Tsessebe belong to the same family as the Wildebeest and the Hartebeest, all of which are characterized by their comical appearance as a result of their shoulders being higher than the withers. The Tsessebe is considered the fasted antelope in Southern Africa.

Just a comical shot (well for me it was) as I watched these 2 Canadian Geese. Just beyond the trunk there was a large group of people having a picnic on the sand and these 2 were watching them intently. The moment they left they jumped over the trunk and headed for the water in a flash.
These australian pelicans are the most comical birds I know.. I really love to watch them nevertheless they have absolutely bad manners sometimes.. 😁

Some shots of puffins taken on a beautiful day in June - hard to believe now! They are such cute birds and I have given them some daft titles!
I just found this a fascinating bird to watch. I don't know the specific species but I hope one of my flickr friends will enlighten me....
Those sideburns were spectacular!
A young elephant as its stomps ti make its presence known to us. Was quite a comical sight as it backed off after a while and was just purely showing off really...
I knew he was close., and had a very good idea where he was., but wasn't expecting this almost cartoonish appearance from behind a tree! It made for an almost comical image that you just had to take advantage of. No its not classic wildlife photography., but I couldn't resist uploading it!
quite comical to see a "mighty" red-winged blackbird chasing such a large bird like a great blue heron away
The Brown Pelican is a comically elegant bird with an oversized bill, sinuous neck, and big, dark body. Squadrons glide above the surf along southern and western coasts, rising and falling in a graceful echo of the waves. They feed by plunge-diving from high up, using the force of impact to stun small fish before scooping them up. They are fairly common today—an excellent example of a species’ recovery from pesticide pollution that once placed them at the brink of extinction.
