Backstory: My neighborhood is home to wild peacocks. They recently terrorized my mom’s garden, eating the first bell pepper she ever grew. She was distraught but seems to have fallen in love with a peahen and her four babies. I receive picture updates every couple of days.

The babies seem to double in size every week. they don’t appear to be fond of corn (though they sure were last year) but definitely puddle up over a baguette. i’ll test cheese & wine over the next few days to be sure they are not my love children.

also – one baby is particularly brave and piggy. i’ve named him super pig. he just seems to run around the yard w/ his face full of bread.
