A cheeky bird was rescued by a woman after it flew right through her car window and made itself comfortable in her vehicle as she was driving along a country lane in the United Kingdom.

Jessica Mathews spotted the rooster on the side of the road as she made her way home along a country lane in Aston-on-Trent, Derbys, according to SWNS, the British news service.

But the runaway bird decided to hop through the window of her Ford KA before making himself at home in her passenger seat — and refused to leave.

The rooster, nicknamed Barry, even "munched its way through" the woman's shopping haul while she tried to lure him out of the vehicle, SWNS reported.

Mathews decided to rescue the lost animal and bring him to her house before she was able to rehome him eventually.

She shared footage of the hilarious encounter on Instagram — showing the bird clinging to her window, inside her car and even perched on her shoulder. (See the video at the top of this article.) 

"He just didn't want to get out of the car," she said. "I was trying to nudge it out the car and then the next thing I know, he's [sitting] on the passenger seat."

She also told SWNS, "I was thinking, ‘OK, well it looks like I now have a chicken.’"

She said that no veterinarians wanted to take the bird, as "he wasn't my pet. I thought, 'I'm going to have to take him home and my boyfriend is going to kill me.'"

On social media, Mathews said, "I've been driving down the country lane, going back home, with my window down, and I swear to God this chicken has just flown in my car window. What do I do?"

She also wrote, "Honestly, these things only happen to me. There's a farm over there and I'm going to go and see if it belongs to the farm. It just bit me as well."

In a different clip, she gave another update, saying, "So he doesn't belong to the people on the farm, nobody is answering there, so we are now going to see if we can find if he lives up here."

She added, "He seems quite happy apart from the s--- on my car seat, so that's great. We are going to go to the next house."

Then, in yet another update, she said, "It's getting really dark and late, and I can't find where this [rooster] lives. I'm gonna try and lure him back out into the field. I've got some pecan nuts and some raspberries from my food shop, and we're going to try and get him out of the car."

That endeavor wasn't successful, however.

Eventually, after she'd contacted vets plus animal rescue centers, a man in Castle Donington, Leiceister, offered to rehome the bird the next day, SWNS reported.

Said Mathews, "It was really hard to give him away, actually, because he was really nice. A lovely little bird."

The Washington Post revealed on Saturday that the outlet initially passed on the Samuel Alito flag story in 2021 after its former Supreme Court reporter had a confrontation over it with the justice's wife.

"The Post decided not to report on the episode at the time because the flag-raising appeared to be the work of Martha-Ann Alito, rather than the justice, and connected to a dispute with her neighbors," the Washington Post report said, citing a spokesperson for the paper. "It was not clear then that the argument was rooted in politics."

Former Washington Post Supreme Court reporter Robert Barnes went to the Alitos' home in 2021 after receiving a tip on the flag. According to the outlet, Alito's wife, Martha-Ann, shouted, "It’s an international signal of distress" after being probed by the reporter on the flag. 

An upside-down American flag, a symbol used by the former president's supporters who falsely claim President Biden did not win the 2020 election, was seen flying at Alito's home in the weeks following the Jan. 6 riot, The New York Times first reported last week. 

ALITO SAYS WIFE DISPLAYED UPSIDE-DOWN FLAG AFTER ARGUMENT WITH INSULTING NEIGHBOR

Alito previously told Fox News that his wife was the one who hung the flag in response to insults from a neighbor. 

Cameron Barr, the former senior managing editor, took responsibility for not running the story at the time, according to Semafor. 

"I agreed with [Supreme Court reporter] Bob Barnes and others that we should not do a single-slice story about the flag, because it seemed like the story was about Martha-Ann Alito and not her husband," Barr told the outlet.

Semafor referred to the decision as "cautious and deferential, and very pre-Dobbs," suggesting it meant more now after the Supreme Court's conservative majority overturned Roe v. Wade.

"Now, it's hard to imagine," the outlet wrote. 

Members of the media and prominent Democratic lawmakers are calling on Alito to recuse himself from all cases before the court that are related to Donald Trump. Conservatives have said the story is much ado about nothing and part of a wider effort to delegitimize the Supreme Court.

"In retrospect, I should have pushed harder for that story," Barr told Semafor. 

Alito's wife reportedly told the Washington Post reporter to ask their neighbors what they did and told the reporter to get off their property.

Another symbol carried by Trump supporters, an "Appeal to Heaven" flag, was seen flying at a beach home owned by Alito in New Jersey, the New York Times reported days after their initial report. The flag, also known as the Pine Tree flag, dates back to the Revolutionary War.
