We got a good look at the chicken one mid-day, walking toward Ellis Square.
"Oh, it’s cute!" I exclaimed, peeking through the pickets of the small porch. "It looks almost real, doesn’t it? Even in the daytime!"
"I wonder why we’ve never noticed it before," you pondered. "We walk this way all the time. I wonder if it was an actual chicken, stuffed by a taxidermist."
"Eeeww, that’s kind of creepy," I giggled.
"Maybe it was a pet chicken," you suggested, "and they wanted to keep it around even after it had died."
"That’s kind of sweet, actually," I said.
