Chicken S.O.S.

Yesterday morning, the friends who are living in our house in San Francisco sent me an urgent text about a lost chicken that had strayed into our front garden. They'd put her into our coop for safe keeping, but she wasn't exactly welcomed with open wings by the others. (Maintaining the pecking order can be brutal business.)

Living out here in the mountainous country, most of my thoughts of and yearnings for San Francisco relate to the city's more urban amenities, so it was strange to get such a bucolic-ish text.

Stranger still was the techo-solution to this bird's plight:

Hours later, she was back with her flock.

Here's to San Francisco in all it's e-chicken glory. It's the crazy juxtapositions that make my heart pitter patter.
