"Peacocks continue to flood into the Los Angeles area. The colorful birds have long roamed Los Angeles streets but residents have reported damaged property and noise complaints, which has led to a proposed ban on feeding them. Among the annoyances is the male birds' mating call, which resident Kathleen Tuttle said sounds like babies being tortured through a loud microphone." Via Inside Edition.
We think Kathleen is being just a wee bit dramatic, but hey we certainly would not be pleased if peacocks overran our house either! It would be cool for a bit, we'd take some photos and watch from distance as these majestic birds encroached upon our land. We'd retreat into the house and hopefully they wouldn't follow.
