The Minstrel (a.k.a. Oo-de-lally)

I wonder what my five little hens would think if this guy came over to strut around the yard!
Wait!  
I know!
They'd say, "OOOooooooo-de-lally!!!"
Sorry...
Now that song will be stuck in your head all day long.
Ha ha!  Oh, well, it's a pretty happy thing to have stuck in your head.

"Laughin' back and forth at what the other'ne has to say
Reminiscin', This-'n'-thattin' havin' such a good time
Oo-de-lally, oo-de-lally, golly, what a day!"
Thanks Roger Miller for 
writing such a fun song.

These words fit pretty well for how my painting partners and I felt while we were painting roosters.

By the way, did you know that Robin Hood rooster had a name?  
It was Allan-a-dale.  
Hm... who knew!

    One of Ethan's favorite movies when he was little. I loved the music more than anything else because who doesn't love Roger Miller? That's one fine looking rooster. ;)
