Next time you’re in the salon
having your nails or hair done
think of these country chicks
after a few days of heavy rain
they pounced upon this platform
to keep their feet dry as they
fastidiously preen their plumage
No local salons attend to their beauty
so they improvise their natural features
with only a couple of strutting roosters
there is far too much competition
who will fertilise their eggs to hatch
some new chicks or have them snatched
for someone’s breakfast … natural selection!
my pic from the alpaca farm where I lived off grid in my tiny home
aroused 
Apt similarity to girls in front of the mirror. Each to herself – but girls have to have input. “Oh my hair is awful today.” “This color is dreadful on me.” All that kind of pleading for compliments. Love the picture. Unique.
