RE: Feathered Friday - Peahen

in #featherfriday6 years ago

That's a great photo, I love it! I'd say that's a male. They lose their long feathers in the winter and then grow them back, and based on the colour I believe it's a boy. The peahen has this colour - see how the neck is more greenish than blue? Thanks for posting in Feathered Friday. Voted and resteemed :-)

Thanks a lot Keith! I did not know that male lose their tail heathers. Yes, I see the difference between both birds. And your photo is brilliant. 😀
