Peacock poses on log in vacant block near Tyto Wetlands today. (Background colour tweaked for greater impact.)
Bird rules roost in several backyards and this morning made a run for it through a garage, up and over trailer, around the back of a house, down the road, up into a tree, and finally flew 70 metres into a gauva grove. Longest flight I've seen from any bird with a 1.5-metre tail.
