Why...

Description

... did the peacock cross the road? ;p

... Yeah, they let peacocks run around this place, and they're actually quite friendly. This one actually walked right up to me and a small child nearby. :aww: I think they do that with geese, too. They were being TOO friendly, and I've never seen one let a child get within a few feet of them until now. :suspicious:

Too bad I couldn't get a photo of one with its tail feathers open, though. That would have been nice

It's so disfortunate that the males are so beautiful and the females are so boringly dull & brown (granted, that's how nature seems to have made it for many bird species...guys get to be all showy; ladies get to be frumpy & bland). We have some that apparently "live" in a particular area and they have the most distinctive sound....sort of like a cat and a baby being murdered at the same time, LOL! It always gives me a startle when I hear it. LOL!
