I Melograni del Chianti—Chickens


At the Tuscan villa (I Melograni del Chianti) we stayed there was also a brood of about eight chickens and a very vocal rooster. I didn't mind hearing it crow every morning though, because it reminded me that I was in the the beautiful Italian countryside. The rooster DOCG label  shown below is on Chianti wines (and other regional products), authenticating that they are from the Chianti region. We fed the chickens and rooster our veggie scraps each morning from the previous night's dinner. (Oil on canvas, 8" x 10.")
