A nearby neighbor now has ducks and chickens. I grew up with a neighbor whose rooster was a convenient alarm clock so the presence of the fowl is a known experience for me.
What I can't get used to is seeing them moving around from property to property.
Besides the fowl being tough on yards and destructive, they are at real risk for being hit by vehicles. I now rarely drive to my office without seeing one or more dead fowl roadside. The nearest ducks and chickens cross the road frequently to visit a very large pond. Eventually they will try to cross in front of a vehicle and be another roadside fatality.
