I guess Peabody, the peacock that suddenly appeared here a year ago, has decided to move on. Where he came from or where he went we don't know. We only know how much we enjoyed his beauty while he was here. He spent the year trying to impress the chickens with his magnificent display, but they were unimpressed. So, perhaps he moved on to look for a sweet peahen somewhere else. Bon voyage, Peabody! I got a number of great photos of you while you were here!

On the negative side, Angie and I both got vehicles that are a pretty deep blue color. For some reason, the cars drew Peabody's attention and he would attack his reflection in the paint job. This was not a good thing for the paint, and as a result both vehicles now have scratches in the side door. But hey, neither Angie nor I had anything to do with Peabody's disappearance and there is no sign of 'fowl play'. He simply moved on to greener pastures, as he had done when he came here.
