The Palma Rooster Show

campionat_balears

Thousands of chickens, cockerels, roosters, capons, turkeys, pigeons and the like were exhibited in Palma over the last three days in an international show of feathered animals of 150 different species. There were three categories of contest: International domestic fowl, Spanish cocks and hens, and autochthonous Balearic Aves. 26 jurors spent two days of evaluations and markings, giving out First and Second prizes to almost 100 birds.

Whilst visitors had to endure a lot of rooster crowing, the sheer beauty of some of the cocks on display made the show a very pleasing event.
