They especially like to gather on a narrow one-lane bridge & it's rather tricky trying to cross that bridge without hitting them. They're rather stubborn & will strut right alongside my car with their long tails dragging behind them - squawking like you wouldn't believe. They are extremely loud birds!La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386453083302606197.post-75544971403587978452014-11-29T17:10:07.799-05:002014-11-29T17:10:07.799-05:00Such dramatic birds, the flamingo and the peacock....Such dramatic birds, the flamingo and the peacock.
