Today was a very nice day out, I mainly was looking forward to taking pictures of the peafowl egg and got a surprise...Well I won't give it away so you have to go see my this year's egg topic here for pictures and stuff:

Now for some pictures!

We have a bird house that helps hold up the netting, and some birds build a nest in there and today I heard their chicks peeping. The poor mom and dad were constantly flying back and forth with food. Peafowl sure are lucky they don't have to do that!

Dragon was mainly in the tin shed on a perch. Lazy bird!

Sometimes he flew down if I was throwing out anything good.

Only the peahens get in the water to drink. They really love it Pip was closing her eyes and everything.

When Pip bent over to drink her neck got all wet, and I really like the color her feathers turned when they were all wet, like an orange bronze color or something.

For the egg pictures you will have to go see the other topic.

Yeah I never knew they would get so pretty like that, I like how peacock's train feathers get more pink and orange looking when they are wet.
