I was excited today to find out that some pictures that I snapped of our rooster "Roosty" won honorable mention in the Purina Mills fanciest and funniest chicken photo contest.   I entered the funniest category.  I took these pictures one afternoon back in the spring before and during a thunderstorm.  When the storm kicked up we moved to the garage for lots of rooster fun.   It was so long ago that I sent the pictures in that I have forgotten which ones I submitted.

Roosty was a stray rooster that wandered up to our farm last spring and decided to stay.  He is the nicest rooster without a mean bone in his body (which is unusual for a rooster)  He puts up with alot from the kids who love to tote him around the farm.





I took these pictures with some kind of funky color setting accidently set on my camera.  But I think they turned out nice!













Let the fun begin.  I love this shot with Nickel in the background thinking he'd like chicken for supper.
