Thank you, Terry, Fred, Steve, Hal, Lynn, and Jim. Your comments are appreciated.
Hal, He twirled all the way around and gave me a good show. The back shot of a Peacock is actually very interesting, too. I had my choice of several poses, ;-).

What a gorgeous boy he is! I just love Peacocks!

Fabulous display! If I had feathers like that, I would show off too. Love it.

Well Cindy, that display should be enough
to soften the heart of any nearby pea-hen.
You've captured this display from the best possible angle.
l've never managed to do that.

I'm with Terry - you have incited the desire for a trip to the zoo. Nice shot Cindy.
