THE BEAUTIFUL PEACOCK, ONE OF THE MOST EXOTIC BIRDS ON THE PLANET, THE INDIAN BLUE. AS ITS' NAME INDICATES, A WONDERFUL BIRD INDIGENOUS TO THE INDIAN CONTINENT, AND SRI LANKA. THE MALE IS KNOWN FOR ITS' PLUMAGE, THAT IS USED IN GARMENTS AND ARTISTIC DESIGN. THE LARGEST BIRD IN THE PHEASANT FAMILY. HOWEVER, THE PEAFOWL IS NOT NATIVE TO NORTH AMERICA. PEAFOWLS HAVE BEEN IMPORTED TO NORTH AMERICA SINCE THE BEGINNING OF ENGLISH COLONIZATION BY THE EARLY PILGRIM TRADE ROUTES. ALTHOUGH NOT READILY EQUIPPED TO SURVIVE IN THE WILDS OF NORTH AMERICA, THEY HAVE ADAPTED VERY WELL IN SUBURBAN SETTINGS, SUCH AS THE TRANQUIL AND MILD CLIMATE OF THE PALOS VERDES PENINSULA. AN EXCEPTIONALLY FURTIVE AREA THAT IS LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN SECTION OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY. EATING JUST ABOUT ANYTHING THAT HAS PROTEIN SUBSTANCE, PLANTS, INSECTS, LIZARDS, AND PET FOODS (THEIR FAVORITE).
THEIR INTRODUCTION TO THE PENINSULA, HAS NOT BEEN WELCOMED BY EVERYONE. IN FACT, IT APPEARS THAT THE SENTIMENTS OF MOST RESIDENTS WOULD PREFER THEM REMOVED. NOT KILLED, BUT RELOCATED SOMEWHERE ELSE. AS THEY CAN DO SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING THEY ENCOUNTER, INCLUDING VEHICLE DAMAGE, PROPERTY DAMAGE, (ROOF, SHINGLES, STRUCTURAL). GARDENS, LANDSCAPE, COY PONDS, AND SANITIZATION. BUT PROBABLY THE BIGGEST COMPLAINT IS THAT THE MALE HAS A VERY LOUD AND SHRILL, HAUNTING NOISE THAT IT MAKES. WHICH IS DISLIKED BY MANY.
AS LEGEND HAS IT, THE PEACOCKS WERE INTRODUCED IN THIS AREA BY A LOCAL RESIDENT NAMED VANDERLIP. THE SAME VANDERLIP OF JECKYLL ISLAND AND FEDERAL RESERVE FAME. OF COURSE, IT IS NOT FEDERAL AND THERE IS NO RESERVE, EXCEPT THE RESERVES IN THEIR OWN BANK ACCOUNTS. SO I GUESS HE'S THE BLAME FOR THE PEACOCKS AND THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE FAILING ECONOMIC SYSTEM. THANKS FOR THE LASTING MEMORIES FRANK.
THE PEACOCKS ARE NOW, WELL ON THEIR WAY TO BECOMING AN OUT OF CONTROL FERAL NUISANCE. I SAY MAKE THE FAMILY OF FRANK VANDERLIP PAY FOR THE REMOVAL OF THE PEACOCKS.
COYOTES WERE INTRODUCED TO THE PENINSULA IN THE 90'S TO HELP ELIMINATE THE BIRDS, BUT SO FAR, COYOTE NUMBERS ARE NOT YET HIGH ENOUGH TO MAKE AN IMPACT ON THE PEAFOWL POPULATION.
