4. My sister has an albino who is ---
a rescue named Mr. P. She lives in a fairly rural area of Texas and her two peacocks have free run around the neighborhoos. They will go from neigbor to neighbor, hanging out on their porches and nesting in their trees at night. The photo is nice -- in reality, they can be a little dirtier looking than pure white.

6. What a beautiful bird!
There's a zoo around here where they let the peacocks run free. When I was there, a peacock was hanging around near the snack bar, presumably wanting someone to give him some food. I was sitting on a picnic bench, and he stood right next to me displaying, with his feathers resting on my thigh. It was so cool.

8. My sisters neighbors had normal colored peacocks.
I DO NOT want to have those birds around, just look at the pretty pictures- they make some ghastly noises!

9. Peacocks are NOISY.
Beautiful birds -- both the white ones and the regular ones, but they screech something awful. Now if you could cross-breed them with meadowlarks or something, then I'd get a bunch.
