Prabhupāda: There was avocado tree. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, in your garden there. Oh, boy, that was a nice house you had there. Prabhupāda: Hmm. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Big window, picture window looking out to your garden. That Florida property is wonderful. Very, very good property in Florida.
They call it New Naimiṣāraṇya. They have about ten peacocks flying free, wild peacocks. They trained them. First them put them in a cage and keep them on the ground and feed them and everything.
Then, after they get accustomed to it, then they let them loose. They have some all-white colored peacocks, special, and then many colorful peacocks. Peacocks are wild. Prabhupāda: There are no fox. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No. The danger is not from the fox; it is from the other people.
They catch the peacock and eat it. Prabhupāda: Oh, no. This is rākṣasa. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They don't know. They think it is a pheasant or something.
They have no idea it is a peacock, special bird. I asked Abhirāma. Sometimes they fly away and they don't come back. I said, "Does it mean that they got lost?" He said, "We don't know exactly what it means, but we are guessing." The people there are... Prabhupāda: Rākṣasa. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yeah, rākṣasa.
[indistinct comment aside] And, of course, there's lots of coconut trees. Coconuts. That is a special feature of Florida especially. Many people...
You see, the thing is... Like mangoes, for example. The people, they don't want the mangoes or the coconuts or the avocados. And in fact, like when you go out, you can go to people's home and say, "Sir, can I have these?" They say, "Yes, please take them away.
