Characteristics
of peacock
1. Head
The crest atop the head of a peacock acts like a crown. This crown adds to
its beauty along with the provoking plumage. These erect decorations can be
compared to the head of a girl with flowers adorning the hair. The beak is long
and pointed on the blue or green colored face. Patches of white color outline
the eyes like some make-up put for brightening up.
2. Tail
This is the classic feature that makes a peacock extravagantly beauteous.
God has woven the tail of a peacock like a train of designed and colored
feathers. This character distinguishes its ‘strut’ from a mere ‘walk’. Peacocks
usually make the brilliant display of its plumage to attract females. Mating
starts during rainy season and the dazzling dance of the peacocks at the outset
of the rains is a spectacular show off. The array of yellow, blue and green
colors in its fanned tail is a result of the angle at which light shines
through the feathers.
3. Body
Peacocks are one of the largest flying birds in the world. It is more than
2 feet tall when stood erect. In the fanned tail position it would high more
than 5 feet. The bird has a relatively long blue colored neck. The feet looking
like that of an emu, the three-toed peacock struts that establish it “proud”.
