The family living in the opposite house weren’t that generous to allow the cock inside their compound but the country cock doesn’t confine to anything unlike the broiler chicken that has a destiny has become a headache to them. The cock chose the open garden or lawn in front of their home as his favourite hunting ground for forage and used to fly off the compound or perched on the neighbour's tree when the owner came out to the garden. Until now, the situation wasn't different and the neighbour has a reason too to shoo off the bird, despite the fact it digs off the seeds and plants from ground, it doesn't keep quiet all the time rather crying loud esp. During the silent afternoon and sometimes even at night its crows disturb the peace and slumber of all in the house, including a 90+ year old man.
So far no one tried to catch the cock (even the labourers of the chicken shop) and the cock too doesn't come out of the gate or compound (or run into the streets) of the neighbour’s house. The house belongs to a 92 year old retired wing commander but it was his son in 60+ takes care of everything and he’s an enthusiastic gardener and loves planting or seeding new ones. Sometimes he used to share vegetables grown in his backyard and they don't familiarise with anybody in the neighbourhood and most of the time it was a smile or a few words of greeting that ended our relationship even though we are neighbours for 40 years.

I couldn’t get
a clear shot of the cock from the mobile but you could see the cock in the
image above and behind the gate it strolled.

...and I bet that he can be noisey!
Hello,
He should run for his life, lol. I found the rooster on the photo.
Our neighbor has chickens and is raising turkeys. I hear them "crowing". Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, enjoy your day! Have a happy weekend!
This was a fun read...I see him. I wonder what will become of him.
:)
That was a smart rooster, saving itself from becoming a cooked chicken. Yes, I can see the rooster behind the fence.
Hello. I see it too.
That's an interesting story about the rooster. I wonder how long he'll be able to stay free?
Wonderful post, the cock is his own boss and he's not going to listen to anyone. :)
We don't have any roosters to crow near our cabin but this morning the Steller's Jay that arrived yesterday called loudly to wake us up. - Margy
Hope no one kills him ~ Sweet photo for Critters ^_^

Pequeño pero se ve bien el pollo.
Te sigo.
Buena noche. Cuídate.
Un abrazo.
What a hilarious story! Muahahahaha
I saw the cock in your photo.
They can be curious creatures. It is interesting to see that it just keeps wandering around.
