Stock Photo - 12 August 2023, Brandenburg, Heinersbrück: A participant in the traditional Sorbian-Wendish wreath piercing, tries to get a wreath off a holder with a stick from his bicycle. Before the actual rooster plucking, the older inhabitants of the village could try their luck at the wreath plucking with their bicycles. In rooster plucking, riders try to tear off the head of an already dead rooster hanging from a pole from their horse. In many Sorbian-Wendish villages the harvest kings are determined by cock plucking or cock beating. In a few weeks, the respective winners from the villages of Lusatia compete against each other in the Super Cock Plucking. Photo: Patrick Pleul/dpa. - Heinersbrück/Brandenburg/Germany
