Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?

This cocky rooster, oblivious to traffic and ignorant of the
‘mother-daughter-crossing sign,’ climbed a 40-degree hill to be on
Medsker Road. I did not stay long enough to see if he made it home that
evening.

This is Sequim, Washington, where chickens, deer, elk, coyotes, raccoons and baby quails all have to share the road.
