Let Me Out

Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 25 August 2009 in Animal & Insect.

The bugs must be more tasty on the other side of the fence. See what that thinking gets this chicken tomorrow.

@hugo poon: The chickens I saw live a life of luxury compared to those in your superb photo. I think those HK chickens were getting close to ending up in someone's pot.

A careful composition so we can see the chicken's eye so well. He looks ambitious. Can't wait until tomorrow to see why.
