Dunfermline Abbey is a wonderful historic place to visit and it boasts of free roaming Peacocks in its grounds.
They strut around the grounds often displaying their beautiful plumage for all the world to see, making their loud cries as if they really are guarding the ruins and grounds of the ancient Abbey. So remember if you see one .... they really do own the place!!
I remember on one occasion one of these peacocks holding up traffic as it strolled down the middle of Dunfermline High Street without a care in the world. No-one dared get drive fast. All the cars had to wait until the majestic peacock decided to move off the road.
With the backdrop of the ancient walls this makes a peaceful scene - I hope you enjoy it.
