Free range chickens. They come to my back yard to eat the seed that my pet birds drop and throw out of their cages.
Fuji XP10, crash & bash P&S, macro mode, no flash.
I probably should have put this one in one of the motion challenges, but had something that I felt much better about.

Don't the birds just love a free feed? Do they ever leave you any eggs?

A photography related chicken story for you this morning. I work ER, and the other day took care of a guy who decided to take a self portrait with his new pet chicken on his shoulder, but looked up at the chicken before he took the shot. The chicken beaked him square in the eye (which luckily was just scratched). A cautionary tale. Stay safe.

There's a pecking order here, the guy in the middle has the rhythm.

I back the one in the middle to get the most food.
