So, about a month ago I moved into my new apartment, and things couldn't be better. Great place, awesome location, even sits on small 10 acre private pond loaded with bass. Needless to say, things have been awesome here.... until the past couple weeks. I'm not sure what started it, but for the past 2 weeks, nearly every morning beginning at about 3 am (well before the sun comes up) until about 6 am I've heard what I can only describe sounded like a VERY strange rooster. I say strange, because it's not the typical "cock-a-doodle-doo" noise associated with a rooster.
It's not even that loud, certainly not loud enough to wake you up. However, similar to hearing a drop of water when lying in bed, it becomes one of those things where if you do hear it, it becomes the only thing you can focus on and becomes VERY irritating (to say the least.)
Last night's episode was by far the worst yet. This morning, my landlord called and asked if i had heard it too. I explained that yes, I had and was quite irritated with it, and went as far as saying "that rooster sounding thing. I want to find it and kill it."
Come to find out, it's not a rooster. It's a PEACOCK! Now, correct me if I'm wrong.... but who own's a peacock? Especially in the dead of winter in MAINE?!
Here's a little taste of what I have the pleasure of listening to every morning: [youtube]8IF-UXYyilw[/youtube]
Long story short.... The landlord is equally as irritated as I am. He said if it happened again he'd have a talk with the neighbor. I suppose if that doesn't work.... I did just pick up a nice Remington 11-87 12 gauge I'm just itching to try out :lol:
