Chickens, chickens, chickens are everywhere

This is crazy. I think the chicken population of Kauai might exceed the human population. Well not really but there are feral chickens everywhere. Most are adorned with vibrant plumage. They are in the parking lots, along side the road, parks, beaches and even open air restaurants.

In the evening chickens may even be found roosting in the trees. 

Somehow they have no concept of time and crow absolutely all day long. We have been told that there are no preditors on the island so the chicken population just keeps multiplying.  

They also have no fear of people. They will just walk up to you like a pigeon in Central Park. If you are eating they will beg for a bite, even right off your sandwich. 

I guess that was not a chicken....

This was at the Shrimp Station restaurant. Chickens were in all the garbage cans just scavenging for leftovers.
