The most awesome thing you've seen recently? →[More:]So, there I am, on my morning walk, when I sit down on the bench after I've completed half the way, and as I'm sitting there with people walking and jogging all around me, I see this big, beautiful streak of colour fly through the corner of my eye. At first, I'm scared out of my wits because I've never seen anything like it. It must've been over ten feet long from head to tail (kind of looked like a pre-historic bird of some sort), and just as I was about to scream out in terror (I'm not kidding), I realized what I was looking at--it was a big, beautiful Peacock, in all its fine glory. This was the first time I'd ever seen one of them fly. I think it's the Pea-hens that can't take off, whereas the Peacocks can at least glide for a certain distance. This one sure could, and at a good height too. I was lucky to have seen it, because no one else seemed to have as I looked around me to share the joy in what I had just chanced upon...
