That tree looks so funny with the birds in. It looks like they're growing on the tree like some kind of strange flower.
When I was a kid we had a pet chicken that would fly out of the coop every night, go up to the second floor deck, and then fly to a tree. It would be hanging out in the cold like that all winter. Smart chicken. Later that year a raccoon got in and killed his buddies and he was the only one that survived.
That's what it looked to me too at first. I had to zoom in with the camera to notice they are actually birds.
Well done smart chicken - even though if the raccoon wouldn't have come, would we still call the chicken smart? It'd just be the weird chicken that flies in the tree every night.
Good point!
