i’m staying with friends on the central coast of australia and it is gorgeous.  in the morning i’m awakened by a couple of roosters next door at 4:30am.  i’m sure they mean well.  once they get started the peacocks from next door join in “help me”.  that’s what it sounds like they’re saying to me.  there are 36 of them.  some are albino.  i’m not sure why a person would own 36 peacocks.  my favorites here are the bell birds.  their song makes me happy.  i’m going to miss my friends and the bellbirds.
