There it was bold as brass not a care in the world strutting down the street towards me. I think maybe I was in shock or maybe just confused stopped in my tracks and just watched as it pecked its way over to my feet.
In my head it went something like this:
" eh? Something not normal here .... What's out of place? Best wake up , might need to do something. ...
There's a big blue bird the size of a dog walking towards me - forget to tell legs to move
I have a word for this ..... Peacock that's what it is ha (feel smug) There is a peacock strutting towards me, glad I sorted that out.
Hang on ... There is a peacock pecking towards me!
What do I do? Where did it come from, is it someone's escaped pet? Who keeps peacocks as pets stupid. Why is there no one else around to see this?
Its-at-my-feet
Why am I stood staring at it? - cos its odd obviously
Wait till I tell .... No one will believe me .... I have a camera in my pocket haha!
Get it slowly ... Where is it going? HEY stop come back I need to take you picture!"
It was a very Blue Peter moment then, it was fine until the bird saw my camera then Whoosh it was off. Why are animals so camera shy?
Anyway this was the best picture I could get as it fled - proof I not making it up.
