Sunday Funnies: Hawk v. Fish
Hawk: How does it feel, to be on your own, with no direction home? More specifically, as a fish-shaped weather vane, how do you figure out where to point your nose? What does Fish say??
The origin story for the image might make the cartoon a little funnier, if you're a reader who does not instantly recognize the fish.
On top of the historic Monroe County courthouse there is a weathervane featuring a metal fish crafted by blacksmith Austin Seward, which is called Hoagy as the result of a naming contest in 2018. Sometimes, one of the red-tailed hawks that lives in downtown Bloomington will land on the fish. The art for the cartoon was made by applying a software filter to a photograph of that scene.
