  No wonder 'he' is up at all hours of the morning screaming, err… crowing. He (yesterday's entrant) is just like the rest of us, hen-pecked and lovin it, eh… Magnificent, Stanley, I love the colors and the cropped composition. Very well done, my dear friend - your good friend, Allan

  You're too funny, Allan!! Sometimes they do sound like they're 'screamin' especially the younger roosters that have finally learned they can make a lot of noise :-)!!

You can get a lot more outside the store in the parking lot, Patty (LOL!)!

Don't worry, Marcie, there's no way I'd try to get close to this hen. They can be brutal!!!

Thank You! very much for your support and wonderful encouragement, Sanjay, Dan, Allan, Kathleen, Patty, Janet, Charlene, Stacey, Marcie and Terry. I'm very appreciative of all of your kind and gracious responses!!
Happy Holidays!
Much Aloha,
Stan

  Hi, Jill, and thanks very much for visiting the gallery, as I do appreciate your kind response!
These are very colorful critters and their male counterparts are even more colorful. The males are actually used as fighting roosters! Thanks again!
