my boyfriend’s parents were in town recently, which was a good opportunity to do some exploring of the city. the best part was riding on one of those double-decker open roof buses, especially since I would not have learned otherwise that in my own neighbourhood–at the cathedral of st john divine (that big church by the university)–there live two peacocks. and one of them is albino.
they just roam around freely on the church grounds! how random is that?
Some of these were posted on Craigslist here in Anchorage the other day. I hear that they are very noisy birds, otherwise they’d be joining the chickens in the backyard.
