Albino Peacock

I thought that this was really cool and wanted to share this with you. This is a rare thing for a peacock to be albino

yes, they are pretty aren't they. One of my sisters and her husband have a pair of albino peacocks also. I'm not sure where they bought them but they've had them for a little while.

theres a ranch down in Texas my Grandfather used to do work for that had peacocks they used for watch birds. they hollered like crazy when strangers came around the main house. seemed the best of 2 worlds, beauty for the eye and protection for the property.

yes, they are quite loud when they want to be, haha. I think a flock of geese are better watch dogs though, haha!
