How much do you know about the Peacock? Did you know for example that their tail is referred to as a train and an adult male train can reach 6 long feet!
We found some interesting facts from the San Diego Zoo that you might enjoy so read on. “Most people call them peacocks, but that’s only correct for the male. Females are called peahens, and the whole group are peafowl”Â
“There are three types of peafowl in the world: Indian, green, and Congo. Most people are familiar with the Indian peafowl, since that is the kind found in many zoos and parks.
Indian peafowl live in India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka, green peafowl are found in Southeast Asia, and Congo peafowl, central Africa”

The Indian peacock has some of the brightest feathers, but the peahen is a drab, mottled brown in comparison.
The male needs his bright feathers to attract a mate, and the female needs to be able to blend in with the bushes so that predators cannot see her while she is incubating her eggs. A group of peafowl is called a “party” or a “pride”!
