One day I was playing Palmetto and from the fairway of the 8th hole I saw a peacock in the distance. This was a rare find and I wanted the picture as good as possible. I didn't even know that peacocks were here. I went into stealth mode, walking like Elmer Fudd, and sneaked up as close as I could. I was feeling very proud of myself for being so quiet. I was about 20 feet away before I realized it was a backyard lawn ornament.


Whew....I thought maybe you and the missus decided to steal away for a romantic interval on the band stand and found us there.


Was it YOU?
