by Ian Skellern

Congratulations to Mike for his winning entry in last week’s competition. You can see his caption plus all of the other excellent caption suggestions at Photo Caption Competition No. 14: I Brought This New Boomerang, But . . .

This week we have what looks like a lizard speared on a sundial.

“The day that the Herpetologist discovered that his live-in acupuncturist is off her meds” submitted by Nathan C
