Pets at the park

In America we often see people with their dogs in the park. They take them out and let them run around and enjoy some place other than their own backyard. Well, while we were at our picnic on Saturday we saw a family with their pets at the park.



Yes, these were the pets. I kept watching to see if they were going to wring their necks and cook them, but they just let them run around their picnic table and eat whatever they could find.



Everyone had to have a turn holding them, of course.










Our friends' daughter giggled and giggled and squeezed the living daylights out of the chicken! Brian later said something about bird flu, but our friends assured us that bird flu is no longer a threat. The lastest thing we need to worry about is something you can get from ticks. I wonder if these chickens had ticks!?!
