Nothing like the sound of a rooster crowing to greet the morning and the smell of coffee percolating in the pot. Simple pleasures like these make me happy.

VERY NEAT SHOT! Did you blur the background, or is this from the camera? Either way, I love this photo Bonnie.
Do you know why is he tied up?
Bonnie T. Barry replied
He has a long tether to prevent him from leaving, I suppose. You have a keen eye, Kimmie; I hadn’t even noticed that! Tommy supplied the answer to your question; what would I do without my point of reference? Thanks for the comment! And, no, I didn’t blur the background; my Nikon 400 mm lens does that all by itself!

Thank you, Joyce. I didn’t realize you lived in the country. Isn’t it a blessing to be able to hear these sounds and enjoy the peace of a simple pace of life?
