Well, he’s a fine rooster, and just the kind of handsome fellow you want illustrating an Easter-tide post, doing his bit to father the next generation of fluffy chickens. Not surprising at all to find him here. All the same, these gaudy colours are quite eye-opening, quite a surprise. So this cockerel can do duty this week in the WordPress photo challenge: surprise.

well those colours are certainly a surprise for me – not as much as a (too) early wake-up call would have been mind you, especially here in London! Does he live near you?

He frequents a farm/restaurant not so very far away, so he doesn’t disturb us.

Those bright and contrasting feathers certainly are surprising, and he is a most magnificent bird. A surprising angle on Easter eggs too!

He is a bit gaudy. Probably a terrible father 😉

I doubt if he treats them well, though.

Great photos. We ran into several wild chickens when we were on vacation in Florida. They looked like your breed. Crowed and clicked and strutted for the the tourists. Wonder did they crow thrice
