I am so tempted to comment on the rooster in the picture, and its caption, but my strong desire to avoid vacations prevents me.
"Rooster in grass, demonstrating the "alert" stance before sounding an alarm"
It is standing "upright."
Humans learned to walk upright long ago.
One can do this to build a tall building or bridge.
There is a word for this, beginning with an "e", that rhymes with direct.
Tee hee. Tee hee.
