[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Why does the rooster crow ?

He is proclaiming his territory, basically saying, "I'm up and awake and don't you mess with my hens!" And although he does crow at dawn, he also crows at other times of the day, too. Especially if there are other roosters within earshot. I have several in different pens and they answer back and forth. Light plays a role also -- chickens are diurnal (awake in the day, asleep at night), so they wake up as soon as it begins to get light -- half an hour or more before the sun rises. But a rooster will also crow if there is a full moon or bright artificial light. And he will go to sleep during a solar eclipse!
