    Any Pennsylvanians missing a peacock?

    CLARKS SUMMIT, Pa.—Picking up hitchhikers can be risky, but this one in northeast Pennsylvania was a bird of a different feather. Jerry Dimick and a friend were driving along Route 307 near Clarks Summit on Wednesday when they spotted a peacock standing by the edge of the road.

    Dimick said he stopped and "went 'smooch, smooch, smooch, smooch' and the bird came over," so he "reached out and grabbed him."

    With no room in the back of his pickup truck, Dimick put the peacock in the front seat. He said, "The bird was sitting in between the two of us. He sat there."

    Dimick took the bird to his home in Taylor and is trying to find it a safe place to live. So far, he's had no luck with the Game Commission, animal control, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, or the local zoo.

    Story from WNEP - they might know how to contact these folks.

    Love, Columbine

    Peacocks are beautiful birds, but they are the most obnoxious sounding creatures alive. Their cries can drive you NUTZ!!!!!
    But this is a cute story.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    LOL, I was referring to the bird!!! Like I said, they ARE beautiful to look at. Especially the males when they show their tail feathers. And Peacock is not a bad name. I always think of Mrs. Peacock from the board game Clue.
