about

'Wings in Orbit' tells the story of a little chicken with big ambitions.

Every day he watches from his farm as rockets take off at the space center far over the horizon. He dreams of being one himself, of having the freedom to fly far into space and experience all that the universe has to offer; alas, his daydreaming is often cut short by the mundane realities of life (usually a pointless email, or a notice from his farmer landlord about yet another feather-based rent hike). Still, he keeps his hopes high in the sky, where he can wistfully gaze at them and pretend that, if only just for a moment, he too is floating among the cosmos. ~~
