In 'spirit' of the topic, I remembered these babies sitting on my shelf and they are just too hilarious not to share...
Based on the photos on the back of the box, I think they are intended for sporting events...
These are serious booze vessels we're talking about here, not one but TWO, separate eight-ounce flasks cleverly disguised as old-school optics...
I'm not sure who could consume 16 oz. of liquor and still get a good ID on a bird, but maybe they're made to pass around?
Unless I see someone staggering around while birding I don't think there would be anything suspicious about carrying two pairs of binoculars...
And just when I was starting to suspect that us birders are nerds...you show something AWESOME like this.
ReplyDeleteWhat beverage do you think is being poured in on the box? I can't decide what to drink now while birding. I guess it should be themed on the birds. Tequila sunrise if you're going after a Western Tanager, something with bitters if you're going after Bitterns.
Ha! I looks like it might be a beer that's being poured in on the box, but the foil and clear bottle throw me off...maybe it's some 'extirpated' brand from the 70's?!
DeleteLove the idea of basing cocktails on birds, perhaps something with vermouth for a Vermilion Flycatcher? Sparrows would surely require whiskey and gulls would likely require bourbon, I think Seagull Steve might concur on that one...
I have a hard enough time seeing the birds without the booze. lol
ReplyDeleteToo funny! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteThe flask binoculars are hilarious! I guess they do think of everything....wait, this may be a way to entice my husband into going birding:)
ReplyDeleteI love it!
