Mr. P. Is in the Mood for Love

[dmp]

Our very own Mr. P??? or another??

Inanimate fuel dispensers everywhere, eat your hearts out! Mr. P. is on the prowl, and he’s leaving throngs of unsuspecting gas pumps swooning in his wake.

Too bad Mr. P.’s a peacock.

Ever since poor Mr. P. lost his more appropriate mates to a hungry fox last year, he’s taken a shine to the petrol pumps down the road in England, Sky News reports.

It seems that each time a driver fills up, the pumps make a noise similar to that of a peahen in the mood for love — and that makes Mr. P. one happy dude.

So he spends his days putting on a show for the objects of his affections, displaying his feathers, strutting and … uh … talking dirty to them.

"As soon as he hears it, he starts displaying his tail feathers and getting very excited," said his owner, Shirley Horsman. "He's a bit frustrated because there are no peahens around for him to breed with."
