As I was driving home from school today, I saw a ratchet looking rooster on the side of the dirt road about a quarter mile from our house: the long lost Cappy, who had been MIA for over 48 hours. Keely last saw him through the window at midnight running through the illumination of our bug attractant light. He was squanking, and we assumed there were raccoons in hot pursuit. He has returned from the dead, again. I cornered him in our neighbors corral and carried him home.

Good looking rooster!
Thanks! He was a better-looking rooster when he had all of his tail feathers. Two nights in the woods left him looking a little bedraggled.
Glad you found him. Not looking to beat up from his couple nights of freedom.
