I'm just cool.

When the peacock has his feathers all spread out, he sometimes shakes them, causing a rattling sound similar to that of a rattle snake, only louder. This guy was shaking his tail-feathers--you can see the motion-blur a bit in this shot. An interesting noise and warning system to other peacocks in the area. Fencing and tree compliments of the zoo/pen in which the peacock is kept.
