A wild peahen took up residence in our neighborhhod in June. It feeds itself (we never give it anything). It seems quite happy. The problem is it poops everywhere, especially on my 93 year old mostly blind Grandmother's decks. She is wheelchair bound most of the time but can walk her decks without help. The peahen mess is a worry as we are afraid Gram will slip and hurt herself.
We have tried all wildlife agencies, park department and audiobon societies as well as peahen rescue, no one wants the bird. We want to scare it away from our neighborhood. I am afraid to catch it myself-it has very long talons and sharp break (they kill corbras in India for food!).
Any ideas?

If you cannot get rid of the Peahen, then how about putting some netting or fencing up around the deck? Maybe a large deck tent or cabana, I have seen them in Sears and Home Depot.
If I had a bird problem in my garden I would hang foil pie plates in the garden so that the wind blew them around and they flashed in the sun and made a racket. I don't know what else to offer, sorry!

I think it would be neat to have one of these, but if it is causing you troubles, I don't know. just please don't kill it or hurt it. Surely someone can help you with it. Maybe put an ad in the paper? I know a lot of people who raise them who would like to have one.
