When I lived in Dunfermline the peacocks from the local park would ocassionally take a stroll up the street and invade our back garden; not what you expect in the gardens of a run down block of flats!

My cat Lucy tried stalking one once, crept up to it real slow and low...that was when I discovered that as well as giving their high pitched cry they can also honk link a fog horn. Don't think I've ever seen Lucy move so fast as when she ran from that bird and cowered behind me:-)
