Le poulailler des moines trappistes

I was utterly charmed by these French hens roaming about between two sources of food: chicken feed inside the poulailler, and here, happily devouring the remainder of our (and the monks') dinner of the previous day.

Having just read Michael Pollen's Omnivore's Dilemma, I was very happy to find hens who, although not getting a chance to graze in a grassy field, are active recyclers and who fearlessly roam about a rather large enclosure.
