    Similarly, and also often misunderstood…

    Peacock only refers to the males. A female is called a peahen.

          I live a 1/2 mile or so away and down a different road but they still sound like they are in my yard screaming… the first one they got immediately flew away, so then they had to make a giant outdoor cage with a roof to keep the next ones in… I’m not a genius but I believe if you have to build a outdoor prison compound to keep in your stupid screaming birds you should probably find a different hobby.
