Barred pride

Walking in the Yorkshire Dales we accidently met this rooster, as we strayed from our course due to some bulls attention. Pride in white, as tall he stood, prepared to protect his family.

The chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a domesticated junglefowl species, with attributes of wild species such as the grey and the Ceylon junglefowl that are originally from Southeastern Asia. Rooster or cock is a term for an adult male bird, and a younger male may be called a cockerel. A male that has been castrated is a capon. An adult female bird is called a hen and a sexually immature female is called a pullet.
