I had the pleasure of meeting Percy the resident Peacock last week at Filoli Gardens in Woodside, California. Percy likes to hang out by the Visitor’s Center near the entrance to the property. I came across Percy putting on quite a show for a small crowd of onlookers as I was leaving the gardens. He was doing a series of 360 degree turns, showing off his magnificent plumage and equally ornate undercarriage.




P.S. If you are looking forward to a quiet day at Filoli Gardens, think twice. If Percy gets squawking, you’ll wish you brought ear plugs. Just saying.

I’m glad you liked it. Percy has lots of personality and is quite a good looker too. 🙂

Percy was quite the show-off. I was lucky to be in the right spot at the right time. 🙂

Thanks, Sue. It’s not everyday one gets to see the unorthodox view of a Peacock. LOL

Thanks, Dan. I’m glad you liked the pics of Percy. He’s quite the poser.
