On Friday evening, 5/28, we had our first sighting of a peacock in our yard. It came through the neighbor's bushes and walked across our back yard and up through our neighbors' yards.
Yesterday, 5/30, one of our neighbors knocked on our back door to notify us that the peacock was at our front door! It was standing right up on the front porch. He walked around our yard for a bit and headed up the street only to return to our yard a little bit later. He walked around the area for a few hours yesterday and then we didn't see him anymore.
I just checked the MD Osprey archives and saw that a peacock was previously reported about a mile from our home at the end of April. Perhaps this is the same bird?
