Fun with peacocks
All work and no play makes families dull, not to mention they want to strangle one another or at least pull one another's hair out.
Not that I'm speaking from personal experience, of course.... Ahem.
This weekend, our family went to Flamingo Gardens for a little play. We hadn't been there in a while, and we wanted to get our fix of peacocks. That's right. Because a place called Flamingo Gardens should totally be known for its pea fowl.
We came at the right time of year, apparently, to see the peacocks putting on an impressive show for the peahens (aka lady peacocks):
Even tail down, the peacocks were fun to watch.
And I thought I'd treat any possible readers to the seldom-photographed backside of the peacock:
After watching the peacock show off his feathers, was it wrong of me to tell him I was so impressed that I would go out with him?

that does look like fun, I bet the little one enjoyed that. we went to the park where a goose charged Boog until my husband stepped in front of him. good times, good times
Flamingo Gardens is a wonderful only-in-Florida experience for kids. My wife just took her kindergarten class there on a field trip and the kids had such a nice time. This is a great local blog for parents, which I also see on MomsMiami.com. I'm always looking for places to take our two daughters. We've discovered some free delights along the way. As a shift parent, I have to have some mom in me in planning a day out. http://www.momsmiami.com/?a=profile&u=64&t=blog
