This is a nice photo. It brings back lots of memories. I used to know the names of these chickens but the only one that comes to mind is the black and white Plymouth Rock.

With this rooster nearby, I now realize why you are able to get up early and post your photos and leave comments on Daily Photo sites.

I find chickens sort of fascinating. They really are underrated. Maybe you'll have some chicks soon.

Thanks everyone!
Dave, this rooster doesn't live close enough to wake me. I have my own cuckoo internal alarm clock that gets me out of bed at an obscenely early hour.

They must be fascinating to watch.

Perfect capture. That old boy is in hen heaven.

PS: I'll let you know about the Eagles and the nest. I have to wait until Monday now. MB

Interesting expression that. Means just the opposite to what the poor old rooster reckons, though.

No wonder they came !!
That's a very good looking rooster!
