Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Wildlife sightings - Zephyr Arabians------------------------------------------------------------ From: Chipnml@xxxxxxx Subject: Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Vol: 03.2618 Wild life sightings We have a ride in SE MN that takes us past (I kid you not) a PEACOCK farm. The first year I competed Cheers--not a year I care to think about anyway--we came past the farm, and he stopped dead when he saw a male peacock right by the road. Then the peacock decided to fan his tail and give that earsplitting call. I guess growing up in Palos Verdes, CA, causes one to no longer consider peacocks as wildlife. :) They're EVERYWHERE. You can't ride in PV without encountering peafowl all the time: hens & chicks and LOTS of males showing off. They're not remotely bothered by the horses, and the horses figure out not to care about the peacocks either. The worst thing about them (besides the damage to your roof and/or garden) is that noise they make. I was always checking trees to make sure that it was really a peacock and not a stranded cat or tortured child... ~Nicole Zephyr Arabians http://www.zephyrarabians.com KattWmn Web Design http://www.kattwmn.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
