o0 this is a story  about a dumb fowl and a true one at that.0o

o0 we have a taxi stand for our neighbours,and these guys,for some unknown reasons have a lot of animals.From chickens to dogs and monkeys to snakes! 0o

o0 These animals are really strange,and do some real strange things,even for there own kind. 0o

o0 I ve had the oppurtunity to observe the fowls there,and believe me, it was very intriguing.And here in this post i will try to convey to you,the whole "ritual" carried out by one of these animals,a fowl. 0o

o0 One thing that can clear the mystery behind the ritual,is the strange behavior of the fowl.It crows at about 2 am every morning,with all punctuality(My mum giving the explanation,"imported murga hai") .Every morning from 2am to about  2:30am,the fowl crows with all its might,and then,all is quite through out the night.Day Dawns and still everything is quite.The fowl dosent crow when it is supposed to,deepening the mystery further!

 At about 11:30 am,the real action starts.to explain it better,i will be using diagrams.

 At 11:30,the cock jumps over the wall,seperating our apartments from the taxi stand,and frantically paces up and down the wall for reasons unknown.Now the situation is something like this

     (Apartments)   |fowl|  hen   (Taxi stand)

  All this time the hen is on the taxi stand,pacing along with her hubby,but the only difference being ,she is on the ground on the taxi stand side.

  Then at about 11:45,after about 4 laps of the wall,the cock jumps over on to our side of the wall.Now the situation is something like this.

    (Apartments)   fowl || hen   (Taxi stand)

  At 11:45 ,starts the most bizarre of animal behaviors, I have ever seen in my life!.The cock starts making some really mysterious noises..something like ...puk puk puk puk.....this continues at a very low volume for some time....and then there is a sudden PUKKKAAAAAK.The fowl goes mad,and furiously pecks at the wall.At the same time,the hen on the other side also goes mad,making more weird noises,which, Iam not able to put in words.These noises are accompanied by small high pitched chee chee 's ,which the small chicks make,who having woken up from there slumber,have joined there mother in the strange ritual.The situation is something likethis now

 (Apartments)   fowl>>|| hen,Chick1,chick2 (taxi stand)

  This strange behaviour,continues for about an hour,ie from 11:45 to about 12:45.To an outsider, it would look,as if the cock is stuck on our side of the building,and it is frantically trying to get back to his family on the other side of the wall.

  Then at about 12:45,the cock suddenly stops.All is quite.Then at about 12:50,theres a loud PUKKAAAKAKAKAKAK!!.The loud PUKKAKAKAK,can only be the victory shout,as the level of content in the pukkak is really high.Having given the victory Pukak,the cock quietly climbs the old run down van,parked next to the wall,and crosses over to the taxistand side of the wall.There he is greeted happily and excitedly by his family,and they proudly walk back to there coop.the cock even challenges the dumb labrador,whos come to investigate the commotion,and to top it off,the dumb dog is actually scared of the dumb fowl,and so,backs off,and the fowl family march on to there house!.

This happens nearly everyday,with strict punctuality,and also with the dumb labrador challenging the dumb fowl everyday,and also running away from the dumb fowl.0o
