A peacock, known for its stunning display of iridescent plumage, is a majestic bird native to South Asia. The male peacock, or peafowl, is particularly renowned for its vibrant, elongated tail feathers, which are covered in striking blue, green, and gold markings. These elaborate feathers called the train, are used during courtship displays to attract females. When displaying, the male fans out his train in a magnificent fan shape, showcasing its vibrant colors and intricate patterns. In addition to their remarkable appearance, peacocks have a distinctive call, a loud and piercing cry that resonates through their surroundings. While the male is renowned for its ornate plumage, the female, or peahen, has a more modest appearance, with brown feathers providing effective camouflage in their natural habitat.
