Gloucestershire in pics: Hi-vis chicken and festive fun
Gloucestershire has been illuminated this week by stunning festive displays as thousands of people have been enjoying the last days before Christmas.
We've picked some of our favourite photographs from across the county, including Bourton-on-the-Water's famous tree.
And up in Cam, a chicken has been impressing people with its high-visibility jacket to protect itself from motorists.
New details about the county's long-awaited A417 Missing Link project have also got people talking.
Chicken run: Photographs of a chicken in Cam roaming around the village wearing a hi-vis jacket to protect herself from motorists has impressed readers.
She is called Billie Jean and is two years old. Despite originally being kept with other chickens, she's had to be moved because she was known to bully them.
Treemendous: The beautiful Christmas tree at Bourton-on-the-Water is usually captured in the dark to get the full effect of the lights.
However, in this picture the photographer has done an amazing job of capturing the tree in dusk.
