Peacocks at the zoo

.

Lots of Peacocks (they're actually Indian Peafowl, males are called peacocks and females peahens) at the zoo, but it's usually hard to get a look at that big, beautiful fanned tail!

But we had good timing, or just good luck, there were a lot of vocal males all over the place, and lots of displaying going on!










They're fearless - everybody loves 'em!
