Road-crosser 6 - Tawagan, Philippines

Why did the hen cross the road so slowly? 'Coz there are no cars coming, only this boy on his bike and the road is half flooded, now if it were a duck it could swim across the road! Photo taken on a rural road in Zamboanga del Sur, Mindanao, South Philippines. (My Photo - May 2008)

Canal-crosser 5 - De Kleine Deelen, The Netherlands

This post is made with the kind permission of A.B. van der Weide of the Netherlands who first posted this fantastic photo on photo.net with the title Braveheart! Braveheart has to be brave to lead his big harem of hens across the canal, hasn't he?!

He said: "...The photoslide is one of a series in which I saw a group of chicken crossing a plank. Just pure luck to get this one..., will never shoot such a lucky shot again."

Well, then why did the chicken cross the canal? I guess, if you got your geography right, because there are more canals than roads in Holland...
