And, this evening they were joined by..........................a Peacock.

Ohhhhhh -- how lucky you are! You seem to be getting a nice combination of wildlife. We are in one of the newer Villages' sections and consequently, everything is too new for attracting some of the more interesting and desirable birds. I guess we'll just have to bide our time until things really grow!
BTW -- I hope your peacock is just "passing through," unless you don't mind being awakened at the crack of dawn. They are verrrry vocal! I speak from experience. Anyway, for the time being, just enjoy.
