The bird remained perched on the hood, peering through the windshield and appearing reluctant to fly away, as if unfamiliar with vehicles. The unexpected scene amused Chinese netizens, with some joking that the driver should take the “heaven-sent chicken” home.

Floods in Bangladesh have killed at least 13 people and affected millions of others in the country’s northeast, adding to the challenges of an interim government struggling to return order to a country plunged into anarchy after mass protests forced out its autocratic leader. The regions of Feni and Cumilla were worst hit, the country’s ministry of disaster management and relief said. Communication lines have been affected, with almost all cellphone towers losing electricity. Rail service has been suspended and roads have been damaged, hampering delivery of emergency aid. Bangladesh’s army and navy have been deployed for rescue operations. Photo by Anik Rahman/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
