Unacceptable Rypstra
212 (2) 'Eye' Popper
A back-lit Indian Peafowl at Beacon Hill Park, BC.
I recently learned from a pheasant enthusiast, that these birds are not Peacocks. There are two variety of Peacocks, one of which is similar in colouring to the Indian Peafowl, but it is clearly a completely different bird. It is no doubt this similarity, that has caused the common name discrepancy.
This weekend has been wonderful and busy. I will catch up with you all early this week. Thank you once again for all your favs and comments!! They are, as always, very much appreciated.
