ARTFULLY AVOIDING THE LANDFILL (& driving my husband crazy) ONE PIECE OF JUNK AT A TIME

8/30/09

After spending almost a year living in a chicken coop with Miss Lucy (our only female goose) we decided to let poor Mr. peacock out into the wide open world! To our surprise, he was very tame and didn't fly away or run away from us when we approached. He wandered around until he found his parents and sisters who live in the wire corn crib that we call a bird cage. Alas, he looked so lonely circling his caged family that we decided to release one of his sisters so he would have someone to play with. (We really have no idea what peacocks do for fun). He didn't seem to think it was such a great idea as after a bit of wandering around with her, he flew up into a tree on the far side of the farm while his sister perched atop the big bird cage. It's kind of like buying expensive toys for your kids only to have them prefer empty boxes and milk cartons to play with. : )
