Passing Visit

As a post-script to the last post, an unusual visitor has just passed by our front room window - a very large, beautiful, brightly coloured, and noisy, male peacock. He strutted about for a little while outside, ignoring the barks of our dog and striding up and down the path with his long iridescent blue neck bobbing. Finally, having exhausting the avian delights of Middlewood he strolled off down the hill and disappeared from view.
