Chanticleers

Chanticleers are often associated with the character of a proud rooster in literature, most notably in the medieval fable "The Nun's Priest's Tale" from Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales." In this story, Chanticleer symbolizes arrogance and confidence but also serves as a cautionary figure when he is tricked by a cunning fox. The term can also refer to groups or crews, such as sports teams or organizations, that adopt the rooster as a symbol of watchfulness and pride. Overall, Chanticleers represent both the qualities of leadership and the potential pitfalls of overconfidence.
