We had a visitor today...



One our neighbors peacocks decided to drop by for a visit today. He is a beautiful male but unfortunately he is not the dominant male in their group. He was out looking for his own mate but I'm afraid they are in short supply around here lol. They have a very unique call that is impossible to mistake for anything else and their plumage is just gorgeous as you can see. I couldn't get him to open his tail feathers for me but I got a nice close up shot anyway. He lives about a half mile from our house and comes over via the corn field that's between us and his home so he evidently doesn't mind the walk. We also got some rain the last two days so I hope that the morel mushroom hunting might perk up some over the next few days.
