Cheung Chau Chickens

Walking along the Cheung Chau seafront we came across this row of chickens hanging from a bamboo gallows. Given the recent cases of bird flu I wondered whether it was evidence of some pagan ritual to keep the illness away. MrsB assured me it was just a local restaurant hanging the chickens up to dry, so the skin is crispier after roasting.
