Since i cant be posting new music videos everyday, i decided to start making a series of short posts with interesting things i run into in my daily life.

To start things off i took a couple photos of a flock of Peacocks that habitate a park in the town centre of Split, Croatia. Its an extremely odd sight seeing peacocks crossing the street in pairs, walking alongside people and cars.

Not everyone is enthused with their presence in the city. Although they are beautiful and majestic birds they are extremely loud, creating a sound similar to the "vuvuzela horn" the world was so lucky to be introduced to during the World Cup in South Africa. 😁

They are currently approaching a number of 50 birds and are starting to migrate to nearby neighbourhoods having no natural predators except the common alley cat that might kill a youngling from time to time.

At this point they are sort of an odd landmark and a local symbol in Split.
You either love them or hate them depending on how close you live. 😁
Im lucky enough to live far enough away. Hehe.

I caught a interesting video of a peacock trying to impress his lady friend. 😁
Its interesting how he starts shaking his whole body to grab her interest.

All photos and videos were filmed by me
Camera: LG G5

I love peacocks. We have a couple that visit our spa and hang out. They do make an interesting sound.

Interesting is an understatement.
A cat once killed a chick and the mother couldnt stop "crying" for a month. It actually got in the news because of how annoyed the people living there got. This is a city with a 200k population with loud birds living inbetween buildings. 😁
