Bugs Bunny Gets The Boid is a 1942 Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Bob Clampett produced by Leon Schlesinger and released to theatres by Warner Bros. Pictures. It marks the first appearance of Beaky Buzzard in a Warner Bros. short.The title is a Brooklynese way of saying gets the bird which can refer to an obscene gesture or as simply the Bronx cheer; in this case it is also used metaphorically as Bugs gets the bird (a buzzard) by playing a trick.[citation needed]
