[BitScan] Wildlife - Indian Peafowl(Peacock)


The Indian peafowl or blue peafowl (Pavo cristatus), a large and brightly coloured bird, is a species of peafowl native to South Asia, but introduced in many other parts of the world. The male, or peacock, is predominantly blue with a fan-like crest of spatula-tipped wire-like feathers and is best known for the long train made up of elongated upper-tail covert feathers which bear colourful eyespots. These stiff feathers are raised into a fan and quivered in a display during courtship.


This is not my photo. Downloaded from a newsgroup. Just enjoy.
I don't know where this is from, since the original poster didn't show any copyright info either.
