    Feral peacocks all over California, even Central Oregon.

    Perhaps Snap knows something?

    Well, he was back in my yard this morning when I got up, so I fed him some frozen peas and Trader Joe's soy & flax seed tortilla chips. He seemed very happy with both. He also enjoyed the water I put out for him. And he left me some more feathers. The feathers are extremely cool. The poop he's leaving everywhere is not so cool. I think if he stays in our neighborhood, he'll be pretty safe. I just hope he continues to be quiet!!!

    They are moulting this time of year. My daughter brought home a bunch of feathers from the SF Zoo where she is working.

    Maybe post a couple of signs that say "No Peacock Poop".
    Clearly he's read the literature about flax seed...

    And if he suddenly raises all those feathers and looks warmly in your direction, run!
