About Peacock:

The peacock is India's national bird. It was selected as the country's national bird on January 26, 1963. The peacock is the biggest flying bird amongst birds and the heaviest in weight. It has a tiny mouth but a massive body and its neck is narrow and lengthy like a jug. The peacock can be found across India and is a sight to behold. Peacock can also recognise its presence in Indian culture and way of life. Its beauty impresses everyone. The peacock is mainly found in forests and fields, and it is frequently spotted close to the water and is more common in Indian agriculture communities. Peacocks utilised their hollow wings in the job of writing by soaking them in inks. Its feathers are as silky as a velvet fabric.

The peacock is essential in Hinduism as Lord Krishna wears a peacock feather on his forehead and the peacock is also the carrier of Lord Shiva's son Karthik. It is a groupliving bird that frequently rests mostly on branches of large trees such as peepal, banyan, and neem. Its skin is brightly coloured with shades of blue. The peacock is also known as Neelkanth because of the bluish tinge of his neck, and their eyes are tiny and black. The peacock is a male bird, whereas the peahen is a female bird. The peahen is not particularly attractive, and it lacks large wings.

The peacock has nearly 200 feathers in the form of a moon. It is intelligent, careful, and quiet, as well as gorgeous. It wants to be alone and keeps a good distance from people. When the rainy season comes in India, the peacock applauds, extends his feathers, and starts dancing slowly, which is both lovely to observe and attractive to female peacocks.
