"Another plausible solution proposed is the establishment of a Peafowl Adoption Program,"

As if.

I would adopt, Miss Pea. I would let her have my nice giant bed, if she wanted. It has a comfy orthopedic mattress. I would play with her and be nice to her, and make sure my mom gave her tasty things to eat. Mostly I would love her, and I would let her love me back.

I am adopted, so I know how important it is.

Pea:
Hey!

For the same reason they don't have an appendix transplant donor registry. :P :P

Or a Juch family genealogy color-in-the-numbers book offering. Crayola would go out of business.

Seriously, I mean.
Well, then

Our family's own little peacock story goes like this:

We had a commute to get from our house in Maron di Brugnera to the AB at Aviano. One of the games we came up with for the drive involved whether we would see various items. The first one was this peacock that lived down the road. If we saw the peacock that would equal 1 point. Only 3 times while we were there did the peacock have his feathers open. On those times we earned 2 points.

Around the corner, and almost to the Autostrada, was an open field w/ a lone, large tree in it. One day when Eric was driving to work, he happened to look over and see a herd (or tribe or trip (!) - had to look that up :lol: ) of pygmy goats running right towards the road. Eric was very, very surprised and a little worried. That early in the morning it was sort of surreal to see that happening. Everything turned out fine, because there was a fence between the road and the field. So, we ended up adding the pygmy goats to the list of 1-point earning items. It was 2 points if they were running. LOL

Finally, there was this albino peacock that lived at a vineyard, but it was on a different route to Aviano. We didn't often take that route, but if we did we would look for it. We only saw the Albino Peacock 3 or 4 times. It was also worth 2 points.

Anyway, I often thought of you Peacock when we played that game. If I've already told this story, I apologize. :)

That is so sweet, thank you.

The first time I saw a peacock fixing to spread his feathers, I was sure he was going to vomit or have a heart attack. It is the strangest thing to watch.

It would have been THREE points had the feathers been open, but alas that never happened. LOL at 'featherdressers"
