Thank you ! Peacocks are beautiful birds, but far from harmless - it's better to think of them as over-decorated geese, and with just as much attitude 😆 They're fiercely territorial and just about have the edge in fights with geese. Spurs and claws give them an advantage, but the geese will win if they outnumber the peacocks because they work better together in groups.

I remember hearing the cry of a peacock once. I couldn’t sleep that night. My uncle had just returned to Nigeria and booked us a night in a hotel for the reunion. I first thought it was a human being because… she was freaking loud!
