“Anybody who lives with a flock of peacocks nearby would probably prefer boa constrictors.”
Noisy and aggravating birds, those peacocks. Our neighbor had some years ago and they would escape their pen and come roost in our trees. I hated them and was glad when the foxes and coyotes finally got them as well.
Note the media’s anti-snake bias....” formidable serpent”...” invasive snake.” Like peafowl are native Floridians....
I’ve been told that peacocks taste like chicken. I have never verified that personally. I prefer turkey if I have to eat bird.
