Unexpected sight

Last Friday, when I was leaving to go to Sam's and was already late, I drove round the corner past all the parked cars and saw this on one of the vans.












After doing a double-take, I pulled in and jumped out of the car, and took a picture on my phone. It's come out rather well, I think. If I'd had the time, I'd have hung around for a bit to see if it spread its magnificent tail right out, but then I suspect Sam would have eaten my dinner and made me sleep outside.

Does Sam have ridiculous tail feathers which he uses to attract you?

Oooo pretty. My nanna has one of those around hers and it makes a hell of a racket during breeding season. Ever seen one try to "fly" from one house roof to another? It's more like falling with style....
