Derbyshire villagers search for peacock’s owner

Residents are trying to trace the owners of a peacock that arrived in a Derbyshire village a year ago.

The peacock, which villagers have named Kevin, has become a talking point in Breadsall parish council meetings since it appeared in the village last summer.

Villagers have placed adverts online to try to find the bird’s owners, so far without success.

While some have welcomed the bird into their gardens, others have accused him of making “mischief”.
