(Our Neighbors, the Peacocks)

Content: Arcadia is a small city in the San Gabriel Valley, known mostly for its mountain vistas, fantastic Chinese restaurants, thoroughbred racetrack, and hundreds of wild peafowl who roam freely about the lawns, roofs, and trees of local homeowners. It is the only city in LA County where residents continually vote against peafowl relocation programs, despite a loud contingent of fed-up neighbors who would like to see the ordinance revoked. As mating season unfolds––the noisiest time of the year––tensions rise amongst the peacock-lovers and the peacock-haters. We see the lengths some neighbors go to protect the peafowl as the question over whether to live with the birds, or not to live with the birds, continues.
