One Chicken Was About To Fall

Shot at Yamuliao market in Tainan, Taiwan.

The table of the butcher was filled with many chickens. Most of them were cut into pieces already. They were ready to be sold. And I saw a woman standing on the other side of the table. She wore an apron and gloves. She was just stripping down the chicken, which she sold.

Among the pieces of chicken, I found one chicken which was not cut yet. It was put on the edge of the table and its head drooped outside of the table. It was about to fall. I wondered why this chicken was displayed along with the pieces. It might be a symbol that this butcher sold fresh meat.
