    It is so fascinating to see the white Indian Blue Peafowl. We saw one in Kipahulu only a couple of days ago, but the Peahen was solid white. This is the first I have seen of the beautiful white displaying the blue colours as well. It is amazing! Perhaps this is the Pied Mutation?

  • holy moly, you know your birds sharon! ;-) i just saw him or her, with the tail out but i was not close enough and as i went to get closer he/she jumped up on a rock and closed the tail, i was gutted that i missed the tail out but still happy with this one…..thanks for the fav! paul

    This is a beautiful Peacock. I have seen the normal colouring and have been fortunate enough to see the white (albino?) peacocks, but never a pied peacock.
    Where did you see him?

  • He was at Featherdale Wildlife Park. I’m still dirty that I missed him with his feathers out so I’ll be heading back there one day! ;-)
