BARTOW, Fla. -- City commissioners approved an ordinance last week to strip the fowls of protection under the city's status as a bird sanctuary, allowing the wandering birds to be captured and exiled from the city.
The city will hire someone to capture stray chickens, and they will be held for three days to give time for people to claim ownership. If they are not claimed, they will be handed over to someone outside the city.

The city's code enforcement board had been receiving rising complaints about chickens escaping from captive flocks.

The birds have been known to dig up yards, fight in the streets and sometimes scratch cars. The roosters are even more annoying, constantly crowing before dawn.

The city's 1922 bird sanctuary ordinance makes it illegal to kill, capture or even "annoy" any feathered friends.

I can see it on ESPN outdoors now.
