I don’t often ‘repost’ photos but I keep mentioning the colorful rooster we saw a few years ago so I looked back at an old post to grab the photos.
These were taken near Bluff, NC where we have some land.
We stopped at Rocky Bluff Campground to have a picnic and saw this colorful character.
We kept looking…
and looking…
not quite believing our eyes!
But he was decked in Autumn colors in 2010 and visiting the campground! heehee!
I’m joining Beautiful Sunday

We don’t see colors like this in Florida.
Have you ever seen Fall camo this good?

We do not have the old growth deciduous forests that you have back east, so our fall colors are rather mundane; however, garden centers have started selling more colorful trees and we are beginning to see those gorgeous red and oranges about town. I have always wanted to a trip eastward to see the old forests in color. Your photos feed that desire. And the rooster! What a fine specimen he is. Have a great week.
I don't know much about them.Is this common I wonder? Did You ever find anything out about it?You can tell I'm not from the country.Hugs-Denise
Good morning, I have never seen such a gorgeous handsome rooster before-is he a wild one do you know or domestic.
That chicken is gorgeous. LOL Prettier than a new hat, as mom would say. Our trees are all bare as are the fields more and more. It's starting to take a winter look. Is it too soon to count the days till spring? Blessings, xoxo,Susie
best fall camouflage i've ever seen! :)
Wow- he is colorful! Love the fall pics..very pretty.
Morning, oh my, that is incredible Fall camouflage. Such beauty, Blessings Francine.
Sure are fab colors!!
So pretty! Glad you decided to share again! Happy Fall!

What a beautiful creature.
When we were in Kauai for Christmas 2012, we were surprised to see so many chickens - literally thousands - all colorful like your friend. But, when we were in Kauai this past summer we saw only a couple of birds. My daughter will be there again this Christmas and I wonder if she will see loads of chickens.
What beautiful photos! That rooster almost looks like a pheasant with his gorgeous autumn colors. Most of our autumn foliage is gone and we are expecting snow and bitter cold this week, so thanks for sharing all the lovely eye-candy.
That is amazing. I know there are all sorts of colorful breeds but don't think I have ever seen one with gray feathers.
Definitely worth the repost. :)

Such vibrant colours on the rooster ... truly in his fall outfit.
He is gorgeous Diane and struttin' his stuff! He gets the award for most beautiful color!!
Blessings, Edie Marie
He's showing off with his autumnal colours isn't he?!! I hope he keeps safe! Take care x
Very Pretty!!
Beautiful, beautiful colours!
You are so lucky to have land in such a wonderful area!
Hugs!!
Maybe he's a chameleon rooster that changes his feathers to match his seasonal surroundings! ;-)
Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday Diane.
He matched the trees! Fun! :)
Aww so
Pretty
Happy fall xx
That sure is a pretty rooster! He would blend right in with the fall colours for sure. I hope you have a wonderful week. Hugs. Pam
Beautiful color - both the leaves and the rooster!
The colors are stunning. We just don't get a lot of the beautiful fall colors here, so thank you for sharing yours.
Wow...he's beautiful!
Thanks so much for sharing at AMAZE ME MONDAY...

I wondered if he was a pheasant. He's a beauty. Was he just a wild thing. Hah, rember that song. Wild thing, you make my heart sing.. i need to go to bed, hah.
I'm loving the seasonal changes here in Oregon. Not many of those in FL, you're absolutely correct!
That is one amazing and beautiful Rooster!
Wow- Those are amazing pictures, Diane. I did not see them before. Sometimes it is good to show those older pictures for those that misse them. xo Diana
Oh my, I have never seen such a colorful rooster, gorgeous colors!
He is just the most handsome rooster, what a beauty.
Diana
Beautiful.
So glad you shared.
Happy Beautiful Brrr Monday!!
Warm Woolie Hugs
Beautiful. The rooster and the land.
Gorgeous photos. Wishing you a very nice Monday!
So is that rooster real or fake? I really don't know, because I've seen a lot of beautiful chickens, but I know I've not seen all breeds of chicken. Whatever this one is, if he's real, I want one. LOL
I have never seen such a colorful and beautiful rooster!! Great photos of him! He must have escaped from someone's farm?
I can see why you were amazed. He is gorgeous and blends beautifully with the Fall foliage.
I don't think I have ever seen a more stunning rooster...and beautiful camo for fall indeed.
What an unexpected surprise! He is a beauty.
Beautiful Fall colors - thanks for sharing. Don't think I have ever see a rooster with that many colors.
I have never seen such a handsome rooster with colors so brilliant. That is really something and who doesn't love Fall colors?
aahh, he is a beauty. His colors go perfectly with this Autumn season, and I'm still savoring every minute.
love,
~Sheri
Oh my!!! hope he lived to see the next day!! YES! Lovely fall colors - what ever year it happens to be!
