I always think of them as on a "chicken", but then anyone can get their "hackles" up if confronted with certain situations, like faux SS markings.
NOUN (hackles) 1-erectile hairs along the back of a dog or other animal that rise when it is angry or alarmed. (hackles) 2-a long, narrow feather on the neck or saddle of a domestic rooster or other bird. 3-a steel comb for separating flax fibers. I have to admit I did not know about #3. Kurusu, Great Picture!

I wish people would take the time to "Google" a word that they don't know the meaning of before they try to use it.
It would save a lot of misunderstanding and time. Sorry. Just my penny's worth of help. Jack |

"Google" a word that they don't know the meaning of." Most people know the meaning..even if they don't know the meaning..If you know what I mean.
