I plan to be the world authority on peafowl. Believe I'll be offered a chair someday at the chicken college. —Flannery O'Connor Certainly are nice to want to give me that dog. I raise peacocks— you can't keep dogs and them on the same place. People come here have to leave the dog in the car else the peachickens take to the trees with nervous prostrations. I have twenty-seven. Place sounds like a jungle at night. They yell and scream at the least atmospheric disturbance or mechanical noise. Sitting on the back steps, I spend days studying how they could decorate the lawn to advantage. They prefer to sit on the tractors, the top of the chicken house or garbage can lid. I adjust to their taste, which is anti-dog. Thanks but I'll take the thought for the dog. Appreciate you wanting to give it. Come visit. Nothing to do here but sit, walk, collect red bug bites, show you a peacock before his tail gets ratty.
