FOWL
Original Acrylic by Christine Taylor
11" x 14"
Many decades ago, these birds were
introduced to the Caribbean. The male rooster with its red comb and wattle also
sports a resplendently plumaged tail. He dominates the smaller, brownish hens
within his territory . These birds are now largely feral and can be seen and
heard throughout the Virgin Islands. On a late afternoon stroll, I encountered
this family on one of the west end mountain paths.
