Peacock farm in pondicherry

HELP - LOCAL

I've been in pondicherry for around 6 years.

In my first year here, i was cycling around Ossudu lake.

I think I had done almost a full circle around it. Somewhere on the way, i could not see the lake to my side. To stay close to the lake, i took a small path which diverged from the main road. I rode into the path which had only trees on both the sides. There were a few people off the side, sitting on chairs, who gave off auroville vibes. Still there was no lake in my sight. But as I rode deeper into this marshy path it opened up into a grassland like patch, which had a bunch of peacocks just lounging around. I stayed there for a while just watching the peacocks. My phone was dead, so I never got any photos. But I keep thinking about that place. I've tried finding it multiple times and have never come across it again. At this point I can't even be sure if it was just a fever dream. The memory is so far back in my head that I can't even say for sure if it was as many peacocks as I imagine or it was just three to four peacocks just roaming around. But if anyone knows where this is please do help out. This is my last year in pondy and I would love to see the place again.
