Well that didn’t go as planned. I am giggling pretty hard right now. The local Walgreens has been overrun by chickens for years, maybe decades. A lot of us locals loved it. It was great to pull into the parking lot and be greeted by cute fluffy chickens, and in the Spring by their cute little chicks as well. ADORBS! Well, while it is fun for most people who visit, apparently the people who share a fence with the store hate it. The chickens do a number on their yards, and cover the fence with poop. Okay… I can see why they were upset. So they city decide to relocate all the chickens out of the area, and end this once and for all. And they did. For a few weeks the chickens were gone. Unfortunately, those poor neighbors had only two weeks of peace and poop-free living. I saw them with my own eyes through the early morning fog. DUCKS! At least twenty of them. They made themselves right at home in the newly vacant lot. Hahahahahaha!
