There’s a Clucker Born Every Minute

Tonight, on “Profiles in Crime,” we examine the career of notorious racketeer and con artist “Ma” Squawker. This queen of chicaneryΒ built her nest egg with ponzi schemes, fraudulent land deals, bootleg eggs, and other scams. Seems she always had a couple of pigeons under her wing.

      And if I hadn’t been so recently ded, I would have said “what the cluck is going on here?” instead. πŸ˜‰

    I’m with Allein! Seriously, what? Why? How? Not having any backstory on some of these things you find is killing me (although only in the best way, of course — i.e. I’m dying happy)!

    Backstory needed especially because from the beaks and from the yellow floof on the left-wing pigeon (hen’s left) those look like pigeon chicks!

      The pigeons look a bit befuddled.

    I like the look on Mama’s face, “yeah, yeah, bring em here. I’ll take care of em.”

      The title on the original photo is “These are mine now.” πŸ™‚

      The pigeons, however, look a bit befuddled.
      As am I.

    Today, two stool pigeons ran a fowl of the law, film at 11.

    I choose not to think the worse of Mrs. Hen – I choose to believe that her maternal instincts kicked in and she is now the young pigeons’ Mom. So there. Call me a Pollyanna. πŸ˜€

    • Haha April 21, 2016 / 6:47 am

      Hi Polly,
      Want a cracker?

        Sure, I will feed it to Mama Chicken and her baby chickpidgelets.

    I’ve seen chickens incubating kittens and puppies. I’m pretty sure a mother hen would sit on a hat full of golf balls.
