Hello Hivers....
This post is my entry for the Cityscape Photography Contest hosted by @photofeed. If you'd like to participate, please read the rules
The photo I'm sharing shows a majestic looking wild rooster standing on a concrete path against a backdrop of open nature. Its feathers are predominantly reddish brown with a mix of black and white on its wings and tail, adding to its graceful yet powerful appearance. The bright red comb on its head stands tall, a prominent characteristic of a healthy and dominant rooster in its environment.
Chickens like this are often found roaming freely in rural areas, especially around gardens and yards. The lives of wild chickens depend heavily on their ability to adapt to their surroundings. They forage for food, pecking at seeds, insects, or scraps found on the ground. Their presence not only adds color to village life but also plays a vital role in the balance of the local ecosystem by acting as a natural insect control.
Photographically, this photo successfully captures the beauty of wildlife in a simple yet authentic way. The natural lighting emphasizes the texture of the chicken's feathers, while the soft background clearly highlights the main subject. Photos like this not only document the life of a chicken but also remind us of the harmony between humans, animals, and the environment in a rural area that remains pristine.
