"I am always surprised by their rare beauty.."

To Thoreau it was the pickerel...to me it is the peafowl. It seems Idaho farmers have an unusual love for peacocks, as I have seen several of them strutting around this near-tundra. Perhaps if I were living on the indescribable bounty of a vast potato farm and its profits, I'd keep an unusual pet or two myself. For now, the pictures will have to suffice.

Enjoy!

  1. Did you know I actually LOVE peacocks? It's kind of a secret, but it is a crazy, vast appreciation. At the zoo last week we saw one in front of the soda/water vending machines looking back and forth as though he couldn't decide between a Dasani or a Coke. I laughed out loud and wished I had another grown up to point it out to...the boys didn't get it.
