The Spirit of the World ( On and Off)
A "Tale" of Rejection
After driving through Arusha Park, my guide and I would return to Mt Meru Game Lodge to rest. But with the view I had from my porch, there was no rest for me. I looked up one afternoon and saw movement in the far end of the little park, then what looked like spines appeared and when I looked closer and the creature turned around, I saw it was a peacock.
Obviously, there were female peahens close by, but they paid absolutely NO attention to him. There he was with the appearance of a Las Vegas dancer with a headpiece on. At times, he looked awkward and slightly off balance, but dejected.
When all of this drama was over, he finally struted over to me and stayed around my room for awhile. I will show you that image this PM. Perhaps he knew that I was impressed and so I was. It is the first time I have seen the bird trying to mate even though I have travelled through India and Sri Lanka. I was thrilled!
Sorry about the pipe!! Difficult to hide it and I wanted you to see him with a natural setting around him!
