Peacock heads home to Central Park Zoo

A peacock with a sense of adventure — and a good sense of direction — has flown home to the Central Park Zoo.
 
As zookeepers had predicted, the handsome, green and blue bird returned around 6:45 a.m. Wednesday.
 
On Tuesday, humans flocked and tweeted as the peacock perched on a Fifth Avenue window ledge. It had good taste: A condo there reportedly sold for $22.5 million in 2009.
 
The peacock wasn’t the first city zoo-dweller apparently inspired by the movie “Madagascar.” In March, an Egyptian cobra who liked to “move it, move it” was found nearly a week after it went missing at the Bronx Zoo’s Reptile House. Two months later, a zoo peahen was recovered at an auto-body shop.
