When I took photos of this Great Egret with a twisted neck and buggy eyes at Fort De Soto I didn’t think I’d still be laughing at them fourteen years later. But I am. Fourteen years exactly to the date.<\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/p>\n

We all know the egret wasn’t trying to be goofy, funny or humorous. It was probably looking for lunch from the top of a light on the pier.<\/p>\n

Me? I was standing below it and when I looked up I giggled and took photos of the bird.<\/p>\n

The twisted neck and buggy eyes of the egret just looked funny to me. Anyone who really knows me, knows that I laugh a lot and that it doesn’t take much to make me laugh. On that note, I thought I’d share a few more captions that might have worked wonderfully well for this Great Egret image:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. This is my ‘surprised’ look… all day, every day<\/li>\n
  2. Trying to make sense of Monday mornings be like…<\/li>\n
  3. When your neck’s got more moves than Jagger<\/li>\n
  4. I’m not awkward, I’m just unique<\/li>\n
  5. When you’re trying to impress the ladies with your unique style<\/li>\n
  6. Trying to keep an eye out for those pesky photographers<\/li>\n
  7. When you’re feeling like the black sheep of the egret family<\/li>\n
  8. I may be a little kooky, but that’s what makes me a great Egret<\/li>\n
  9. Just another day in the life of a Great Egret with a twisted sense of humor<\/li>\n
  10. When you’re feeling like a bird that’s been through a tornado<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I’m sure there are more funny captions that would work wonderfully with this Great Egret<\/span><\/a> photo. Feel free to take a stab at it!<\/p>\n

    Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
