Peacock calling - Pavo cristatus


 
   

Indian Blue Peafowl (Pavo cristatus) also known as Blue Peacock, is the national bird of India. The male (peacock) has beautiful iridescent blue-green or green coloured plumage. The so-called "tail" of the peacock, also termed the "train," is in fact not the true tail but highly elongated upper tail coverts. The train feathers have a series of eyes that are best seen when the tail is fanned. This movie also gives a rear view of an Indian Blue Peacock's tail feathers.Peafowl (both cock and hen) have a head crest.The female (peahen) has a mixture of dull green, brown, and grey in her plumage. She lacks the long tail of the male but has a crest.Mating season starts in the early Spring and ends in the early Autumn. The peacock's courtship rituals include the display of its startling plumage and a loud call. Recent studies have shown that both the frequency and quality of sexual plumage displays by males are reliable indicators of the health status of an individual.Visit WWW.STOCKSHOT.NL for highres version or broadcast video footage.

Cool. My wild peacocks only cry in the morning or at night. At first I thought it sounded like a wild car. Glad to find an audio of one. Maybe if I play it mine will come right away!
