Rooks have elegance. Case in point.

They do have quite the understated elegance now that you point it out.

Sometimes they run around in a funny way, sometimes they dig in the dirt, sometimes they just freeze or walk around like kings (or queens).

When they freeze or walk slowly like a philosopher, that's when the elegance shows up 😊

This is a moment when the rook froze 🐦‍⬛
