Evacuating Chickens.

Evacuating Chickens.

The specter of Hurricane Irma looms large over the state of Florida and has triggered the largest evacuation in US history. Among the lives at risk are animals as well humans. Some concerned resident of Key West has rounded up at least a few of the famous feral chickens and is taking them along for the ride to safety.

I can't imagine rounding up some ornery, fiesta, wild roosters and bundling them for their own safety, but that's exactly what this Key West resident with a huge heart has done!

My thoughts and prayers go with those in the storm's path right now ... my wish is for life and property to be spared from the savage winds and flooding rains! Be safe, people!
