These blue Peacocks are wild here in the hills of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, brought here a pets by the Vanderlip Family in the ‘20’s, some escaped, now they’re a nuisance to some and a beauty to behold by people like me.

To me they are a wonderful creation, I was delighted to have camera in hand when this male paraded, usually I admire only, or, if my camera is with me, they just drag their tails :)
Glad you liked the pic.
