Why did the Chicken cross the road.

Notice the above is NOT a question.
I have found the answer to the age old question.

Situation
While filming at location, we were constantly disturbed by a hoard of chickens, and including one turkey. Our attempt at recording dialogue was not only difficult but impossible.

Now Why Did the Chicken Cross the road...
A mystery to us all nontheless, save for the Chicken itself.
But i have a rough guess:
In its feeble attempt to escape the fearful, larger, more "intelligent" beings, it came only as natural to attempt to go in the opposite direction of the yelling, armed, and arm flapping homo sapiens.

The Result
The Chicken did NOT crossed the road.
In total ignorance of the traffic behind it. A Chicken became, well, ROADKILL.

Not a nice sight. Not at all.
Not a nice feeling, picking up a stiff roadkill. Not at all...
