Here in Logan, we have a tiny little zoo called Willow Park. They don't have much; just a bunch of birds and a couple of deer and elk. Jacoby loves it though, because you can buy food for a dime (I think it's just dog food) and feed the ducks. So, he was bored a couple of weeks ago and we decided to get him out of the house for a bit. It was cold, but he didn't care. He chased the peacocks around and we bought him a ton of food to feed the ducks. We were the only ones there, so the ducks were hungry and Jacoby didn't have to squeeze in with a bunch of other kids. He loves it! He teases the ducks and holds food just out of reach and tries to make them grab for it through the fence. He holds his mouth open along with them and gets so excited when they get it, and he thinks it's even better if they nip at his finger.
The peacocks aren't penned up. They are free to roam the park, so he could get quite close to them.
