Who let the chickens out?

An unusual sight on my way to work today - four hens and a cockerel, obviosuly escaped from one of the communal gardens, scratching around the recycling bins. They were still there on my way home at lunchtime, but there were a couple of people who looked like they were out to round them up!

Thank you for all your congratulations yesterday - and for getting the butter bean onto the spotlight! You're all so kind!
