Originally I thought this was an albino peacock…But have done some research and come up with this – “The White Peacock is frequently mistaken for an albino, but it is a colour variety of Indian Blue Peacock.” It was a very magestic bird and beautiful to see him fan his tail feathers. Taken in Perth, WA.

Taken in Perth WA with a Canon 5D & 100-40mm Canon L Series lens @400mm, 1/320th sec, f5.6 ISO 200.

    This is something else. I work in a photolab part time and I always see white peacock photos come through from this particular park in WA (mind you, I live in Melbourne!) But this is definately the best I’ve seen.
