Some of the critters in my neighborhood:



You get too close to the hens, the rooster WILL get up in your grill. Loudly. Oh yes.



I'm not sure if it's a Baba Yaga tribute or just what, but this was in the middle of the Goose Park (the semi-wild area where the semi-feral flightless geese hang out) for about a week.

Looks like a person, doesn't it? Someone calling their loved one and going on and ON about what a great performance art piece it is, that the person inside the house hasn't even twitched...that would be understandable, right? Um, right?

OMG babayaga's house sighting!

is it a statue? maybe it's a blind, with webcams in it or something?

It is a statue, but it's darn hard to tell!

1.) A beautiful rooster!
2.) Did you see the house on legs move at all?
3.) The geese are flightless?
4.) More baby skunk ring pictures!

1) Yes! I need to get pics of the chickens, too.
2) No, but when I came back a few days later it was disassembled!
3) They are; they're fed daily by a few locals, and are so fat and happy that they don't migrate, and never teach their babies to fly! It's gotten to the point where even PETA, of all groups, is in favor of addling the eggs to reduce the population before things get worse.
4) I'm trying!

Baba Yaga was the first thing to come to my mind : )

Scrap of evidence #3,142 that we think alike. :)

I was thinking of Alice eating the mushroom in the White Rabbit's house, except those aren't very Alicey legs...

That really is a gorgeous rooster. I wonder what breed that is.
I had a pet rooster named Caligula who used to peck on the window when he wanted to come in and sit on the back of the sofa while I watched TV. He got high on varnish and couldn't get up in his tree so racoons ate him.

This is both heartbreaking, and a cautionary tale that needs to be filmed and shown in schools.

You're right!

You could have this racoon narcotics officer mascot telling the story:
This is drugs. This is your pet rooster on drugs.
Want a drumstick or a thigh, kid?

...I am just praying that's it's not some avian-furry-aluminum-siding perv trying to get a date...
