Psychedelic Chicken

This was the photo I was busy taking when I suddenly had to jump out of the road to dodge an oncoming parade (see previous posting). I've developed a sudden interest in chickens, having recently learned that the ubiquitous domestic chicken is thought to be descended from the Indian Red Junglefowl (Gallus gallus). This handsome specimen still looks a lot like his wild relatives.

Such a good-looking animal deserves a close-up. And because he’s not gaudy enough, here’s what he would look like in some alternate universe of inverse color.
