A peacock has taken up residence on a quiet neighborhood street \u2014 regularly wandering into yards and even tapping on windows in search of food<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Residents say the bird, affectionately named Pete, first appeared about six months ago. No one has come forward to claim him, news agency SWNS reported.<\/p>\n

Since then, locals have grown used to the unexpected visitor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some folks have even created a group chat to keep track of his movements and sightings around the neighborhood of Guildford in Surrey, England.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bird<\/a> has become known for its bold behavior, frequently approaching homes and pecking at doors or windows when it is hungry.<\/p>\n

In at least one instance, the bird managed to enter a home through an open door, SWNS noted.<\/p>\n

Homeowner Jim Andy said he first spotted Pete outside his home, and later gave the bird its name.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He said the peacock often moves between nearby properties and appears comfortable around people<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Some residents have raised concerns about the bird’s safety<\/a>, particularly on nearby roads, while others have embraced the unusual guest.<\/p>\n

“He is here every day,” said Nicola Andy, Jim Andy’s wife. “He doesn’t want to go, apparently.”<\/p>\n

Neighbors say Pete has developed a varied diet, eating food left out for him, such as fruit, herbs, peanuts<\/a> and bird seed.<\/p>\n

Martin Dowland, a resident of the area, said the peacock frequently visits his yard and has even taken food<\/a> directly from his hand.<\/p>\n

He described the bird as calm but noted its large wingspan can be startling.<\/p>\n

Dowland said the peacock recently wandered into his home through a back door.<\/p>\n

“I say that I want him to go, but I keep feeding him. I have a soft spot for him,” Dowland noted.<\/p>\n

While some residents say they would prefer the bird found a permanent home \u2014 many have grown fond of their feathered visitor.<\/p>\n

Peacocks do not occur naturally in the wild in the U.K., according to Help Wildlife, and are actually “feral birds” \u2013 those straying from a domestic collection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
