On an assignment the other day we were just about to go into the facility when we spotted this chap walking around the entrance. Quite the most magnificent colors and bearing; but Oh the dreadful voice on him. Because of course, it is a him. The female is a rather dowdy little thing. It turned out that there were several peacocks in this place and they made a heck of a din. Some years ago I had a friend who lived on a small road where a neighbor kept half a dozen peacocks. The noise they made was so bad the other residents got up a petition to have them removed as they were creating a public nuisance. It seems a real design flaw to have them look so wonderful and sound so bad. Perhaps we could genetically modify them to sound more like, say a small pigeon! Coo-coo!
