“You’ll know you have a rooster the first time he crows”, or so said our chicken-expert friend. So, Thursday morning when we heard a very peculiar sound at 5:30 AM for the first time we were suspicious. “What is that sound?”…we were baffled as we awoke to something that sounded half-way between a yell and a moan.

Clutterless, clean moments are becoming so rare around here these days, that I felt the need to take pictures.
