SOME FACTS ABOUT PEACOCKS
Peacocks carry their iridescent feathers with utmost confidence. They are the perfect spirit animal for all of us! They are generally seen as representations of beauty, sophistication, love, and pride. However, different cultures see peacocks differently.
In Eastern European tradition, peacock feathers are regarded as bad luck since they were worn by the Mongols who once invaded their land in the 13th century. In Indian culture, on the other hand, peacock feathers are synonymous with luck and prosperity. People keep feathers inside their homes to safeguard good energy.
Interested to learn more about these impressive birds? You will be surprised to know that the real collective term for them is “peafowl.” Only the males are called “peacocks.” Meanwhile, females are “peahens” and babies are “peachicks.” A whole family of them is called “bevy.” One of the main differences between peahens and peacocks is their size. Males are often twice the size of their female counterparts.
Peacocks don’t develop their magnificent tails until around three years old. Their tail feathers can grow up to six feet long. That is around 60% of their body length! Can peacocks fly? Yes, but not very high and far.
