BERKELEY, NJ — Have you seen the peacock roaming around Berkeley? Many locals have.

The peacock has been roaming around town for weeks and has been spotted on lawns and roofs. The bird's origin isn't quite clear. Patch would like to look into this further, but in the meantime, we figured an initial article might help the peacock find home.

If you see the peacock, officials said to call Berkeley Animal Control at 732-797-1413.
