Here we go again, disrespect of the law of nature;This animal there doing what it supposed to do, it do it within the time it have to do what it have to do.it was not meant to be cock stew,but because of the education they give you.However for thoes who forgot what a cock does in the morning, it crows, and this is to sound the dawning of a new day.
adopt your new city,but doe forget your history;
i doe vex with you i just find you too copa wason.
when i come home also taking the long flight too,i always welcome the sound of the cock crowing.I guess diffrent stroke for diffrent folks.
Some of you people are so negative it is sickening ! It is just really shocking how some people can turn ANYTHING into something negative.
Love it !!!!!!!
This picture was obviously doctored! If one looks closley you can see the Rooster is not grabbing on to the Rail. I raised chickens in my back yard and I had 5 Roosters so I can see that.
Hmmmmmmm. Cock stew.
Please bring me all the crowing corks, their whispers sounds like sweet music in my ears.I am not bothered by the crows. When I am in D/ca, I even get up at about 3am to listen. Long time, special memories.
A joke that man? Must be a picture from the 18 hundreds…
i remember those days when these corks were so hard to come by. we would run up and down with a rope trying to catch one, when we do the neck first we would break. we would always pressure cook the head cause it was so hard that we would want our friends to come and have a good taste of it
Hey watch your language. There is no need for all this sex talk. This is a photo of a rooster.
@ Tiger;

assertive, NOT Agressive!
i remember when granny have to cook on sunday all opn saturday we running down cork with stone all in pss park
best way of waking up in the morning,instead of those alarm clock.
1. The alarm clock doesn’t need food.
2. You can change the frequency of sound.
3. It doesn’t alarm at random times….
the rooster doesnt need battery,doesnt need to be rewind,you do not have to set or unset it ,it goes on and off at the right time .
My mouth watering just thinking of how that would taste under some red beans and dumpling with a little piece of smoke meat in the bottom of the pot for taste………uh uh uhmmmm.
Assertive, NOT Agressive!
Yuck!!!!!!!
Oh i see it’s a baby peacock! aint it?
WOW!! A definite 6 am Alarm!!!!
Boi look jokes!!!!!LOL

Whose cork is this on my FENCE? Pock,pock,pock,pock. Chicken Rithem!!!!!!!
That’s the best pic of the day!! I am a chicken lover and this one looks very much like my rooster.. lol. I’ll steal this pic
I agree, it looks like Chickan…
I am sure I can help this rooster with its next move, straight into the kitchen pot with some dumplins.
Lol i was thinking the same thing it would go nice with dumplin add a pack of chicken soup to that and you have a ggod thing going..
Love it! I wish it was my alarm “cluck” for true instead of that stupid machine by my ears. LOL
And at what time would you set the alarm on that rooster?
Some of allu living in American illegally, but is so allu stupid.
Tiger, Tiger, Tiger. take it easy my brother. the person was just being funny. did you not see the pon “cluck”. i think you should change your name from Tiger to pussy cat. in fact remove the Cat.
if you know what i mean
did someone say anything about living in America? I think you calling the wrong person stupid take a look in your mirror and you will see who you should be calling stupid. Mirror mirror on the wall…………….
where that comment coming from? PURE IGNORANCE!!!!
but who say the person living in america.i dont understand why some people giving on america so .i am sure you will agree with me if i say when those dominican that living in america come down we want them to leave all their clothes and shoes for us .they go back with empty suitcases all the time
The original,woke us up same time every morning,#pow,Godcreatedthat#
Dat one looking good for a pot right now
within the hour!
So after living in the states for six years I decided to visit home the first time. Boy did my first morning back in DA turn out to be hell because of those dang roosters. I’m sleeping after a long air trip and about three roosters decide that 6:30 am ish was the right time to begin their noise. Imagine one rooster sounded like this cock a dooo li dooo li doooooooooooo and did that in several high pitched sounds. These birds took turns destroying my morning. Need less to say I had air plugs from the plane and I used that every night before I went to bed just so in the morning I could wake up on my own. Next time I will come with a catapult!
Let nature run its course… If you dont set the alarm on your clock or ipod, it wont go off and you might just end up getting to work late, but the rooster wont ever forget to crow.. Its God’s way of saying ” Its a new day and I am still God”
Appreciate nature and God..
But JC, I’m on vacay. Why should I have to be disturbed by a fowl? I came home to rest not to be awoken. I’m just saying in the middle of a city like Roseau I shouldn’t have to deal with fowls waking me up whilst I’m trying to get my beauty rest. I know just how to prepare chicken for a tasty meal. The next time I will use this opportunity to enhance my culinary skills.
Well go back where you travelled from then, since you have a problem with mother nature.
Seriously you don’t need to go there with me. My comments were meant to be light hearted. You all get uptight over nothing. I was just detailing my first experience back in DA after not being there. I’ve discussed this several times with my friends whilst in DA and we all had a good laugh. Even my some who reside continuously in Dominica made the same comments about the fowls being loud especially when you’re trying to get a few more hours of sleep.
I can deduce from your response “go back where you come out” a bit of envy. No need to get all Dominican on me because I can get just like that with you. Thank you very much!
I’s not a matter of going back where you come from. Yes I come from DA but I do not leave there now. Where I live I do not hear a thing. I can sleep unitl midday or later. Here I come to DA after a couple years and I had the same experience and it was not on Roseau. Man I would have wrung the cock’s neck myself and I love nature. I was so angry. I think it was before 6AM too. I am a usually cool person, bu when you have a long trip, stopping in Puerto Rico, travel home, then meet friends and relatives, you feel tred. My parents had no problem, waking up so early to go nowhere because they are used to it. I could not believe that one starts and the others follow. I know that I grew up with this but it was really annoying. So leave us alone, we have the alarm clock set to get to work on time
padner next time go up to alaska look up the ice pilots and go to the north pole.leave rooster do his do.
Cockeeeyoko!!!!!!!!!!
