Hi.
I hope you are doing well.
“Try having a neighbor with a Peacock.”
In various towns in Florida, the peacocks run wild.
St. Pete, Tampa and Largo have large populations of the bird.
Mornings, especially around mating season can “disturb” the neighborhood.
The peacock was brought to Florida for the colors in their feathers.
Their feathers are no longer used for pigment and you can’t eat them.
Annoying little critters.
5.56mm
I’m not sure what ‘used for pigment’ means. I know the feathers themselves are often used decoratively...but aren’t the colors the result of the feather structure - like blue jays?
Why can’t you eat Peacocks?
