Every year our female peacocks hatch a clutch of peachicks. It’s a joy to watch as they discover the world around them. They cannot fly into the trees for safety until 4 to 6 days after hatching. They try, and it’s hysterical! They flap their wings and try to walk up the side of the tree. But they are vulnerable to predators, particularly at night. So, until they can escape into the trees, I sleep under the stars with them.
