Here's a fun place.

The LA County Arboretum is a rather nice place to be, mre or less a park like setting. With peacocks. This also is the filming place for a handful of TV shows and films - the Johnny Weismuller Tarzan filming was done here, as was the original Fantasy Island series.



Peacock!

This isn't mating season, so I didn't get the full fantail effect. This second shot was the closest I could get.





Another one, getting some chow


Ducks and others I can't remember what these black ones are called.


An old, old palm tree that's been here for a long time - in fact, I think this was here before they shot Fantasy Island. The second shot has my mom near the tree.





Bamboo forest, looking up

Mom and I amidst the bamboo

Don't know what this thing is....

Auditions for NBC were today, and this bird missed 'em.
