I got out of the car at the post office the other day, and threw some chips into the grass.  These chickens ran so fast all the way accross the parking lot that it was funny, almost scary, but funny. As they ran towards the car I really wish I had taken a video, they run really fast on those crooked little legs!
Picture
Huh?
Picture
Yea? Is what this one was seeming to say...it was hanging out in the bouganvilla behind Salute on the Beach. 
Picture
I didn't even realize till several years ago that they even hung out above ground, till I lived downtown and there was a tree where dozens settled every night
Picture
What a wattle!
Picture
This one was quite at home at the shopping center, right on top of someones brand new car...as most of them are, he was happy to pose...I was afraid to shoo him because he might have scratched the paint..it looked like he forgot where he parked his car and was trying to get a better view to find it.  Ever done that?
Picture
This one BEGGED to have it's picture taken, I was happy to oblige, and I apologized for being out of chips
Picture
These two were having quite the conversation over lunch
Picture
Then she told him to go back to work....
Picture
And Grampa took a nap....
Picture
But they do like to pose
Picture
Guess it's part of thier job to 'Smile for the tourists'
Picture
Some are just Mommies,  who I'm sure hope that when the kids are teens...
Picture
They don't go to extremes with the hair...whoops, I mean feathers....
Picture
And some just look good enough to eat, check out those breasts!
Picture
I love our Chickens, some people hate them because they don't always crow at the right time.  Anyone who lives here for any amount of time has had to deal with that off and on, including me.  Believe me when I bartending I cursed more than one of them myself.  This one was shopping downtown, after holding up traffic as he leisurely crossed the street, several times....
Picture
Time to go, see a sucker in the distance with some cuban bread, see ya'll later!

XO
Smiles,

Toni

Very cool Tony. Thank You. All we have is a few ducks here and there and some low flying geese.

Oh John,
I love ducks, and I would love to see a "low flying geese". What's cool to me about ducks (besides the cute waddle) is how it's "OK" to feed them, I got into a 'bit' of hot water with my landlord for feeding the chickens!

Joey, I love that, you never know what people will say about Key West, even when you're on vacation! I've never been on a cruise, maybe your family will adopt me? XO

Two things I love about Key West, besides the wonderful people I have met there, are the chickens, and the telephone lines. Chickens because I love hearing them day or night. My grandparents both lived on farms, the cockadoodle-dooing brings instantly to mind trips to gather eggs, the smell of the straw in the hen house. Telephone lines because there are not too many places anymore that have their utility lines above ground. Key West and New Orleans. Having all the lines underground makes it so that you rarely have a power outage, and sometimes it's nice to have time stop for just a little while.

Of course you would love chickens too Donna! And I thank you for your comment on the utility lines, I usually try and contort my pics to try and keep them OUT of the pic. Now I will try and look at them as 'unique' Thanks to you! =)
