This afternoon, about 3:30, the 'purple chicken'  crossed the path and went to the east pond. A much larger pond with taller spadderdock that will surely make it hard to find. Don't know what made him move. I did witness yesterday the mink stalking him. The purple chicken wasn't fooled and flew away from him in plenty of time.
  All in all a good week with our guest.
