What do they have against chickens?

Day 3 of vacation with the family.  We have discovered something disturbing at our otherwise AWESOME rented house on the beach here in Anna Maria Island, Florida.  Apparenty there are giant chickens roaming the area.  No, that is not the disturbing part... that would be that it seems they bury these giant chickens with their feet sticking out of the ground.  Maybe to scare the others away?  Hmmmm... giant beach chickens.  As you can imagine, the other birds are concerned about this brutality...  I met gulls and sand pipers and pelicans (oh my) convening on the beach to discuss.  











(I also discovered beach doves hiding in the sea grass...doves on the beach???)  I would be worried about this if I weren't reasonably sure that chickens are NOT carnivorous. 

Tune in to our regularly scheduled vacation blogging later...

You gang is always such a hoot! Hope you have a wonderful time......we did Universal and Disney when Bub an JoJo were in the 3rd and 4th grade.....They had fun at both but what they remembered the longest and talked about the most was the time we they spent jumping waves at the beach........quite different from their day to day life in the Ozarks.......boy does time fly though......I remember it like it was yesterday but now Bub and his wife are discussing when to take their kids.....I think they should wait a couple of more years.....Logan Lexi aren't big enough to do all the rides yet.... :O)
