D. My little brother was flying his kite in the front yard when a neighbor came out and asked, "Are you flying a kite?" My brother answered, "Nope, just fishing for birds."

The answer above is correct.

"Nope, just fishing for birds." is sarcastic because no one fishes for birds, and the brother was blatantly flying a kite.
