Peacock in a penthouse in Monroeville yard tale
Charlie the tropical peacock moved into an 8 by 8 foot insulated penthouse on McCutcheon Road last week. Friends on Brant Avenue and McCutcheon Road funded materials and painting to build the house after his previous keeper wintered him in a garage. Neighbors including Roy and Martha Gibson along with the William Wrenshall family supplied labor and care to keep Charlie from a zoo. Charlie sheds his blue and green plumage each fall, regrows it to about six feet, and eats a gourmet mix of ground meat bread seed and turnip greens while his human circle clings to him through Christmas.
