My Beautiful...

My beautiful rooster Aslan has not been well lately, he is looking a bit bedraggled and I have had to keep an extra good eye on him. 

Not sure how old he is as I rescued him from a dreadful situation of an overcrowded cage. He is definitely becoming rather frail, his once lustrous tail is missing many feathers and he tends to sleep a lot. 

Each morning I hear his crow is a bonus, I dread the day of a silent dawn.

I love this magnificent boy and can't imagine the garden without him. His two chicks Nova and Bella tend to spend a lot of time with him at the moment. Perhaps sensing that all is not well...
