Eagle
In the off-seasons, I hire an animal trainer to help confront secret agents with situations which they are unable to report by radio.
Title text: In the off-seasons, I hire an animal trainer to help confront secret agents with situations which they are unable to report by radio.

Explanation

his comic is making a play on the typical "secret agent" code phrases such as the one above or "The Eagle has landed." or "The cobra has struck."

The image text is saying that when the character in the comic is not following field biologists, he is making actual eagles land in front of actual agents, but they are not allowed to report eagles landing, because that would use the secret code phrase.

Transcript

Field Biologist:The eagle has left the nest.

Cueball(offscren):*KHHHKHT*Roger that.Alert the agents.*KHHHKHT*

[The biologist is exasperated]

Field Biologist:Will you stop that ?
