Who would have thought that a peacock with out its gorgeous colors can still look so beautiful. This is so pretty Carol. I love the way you composed the picture with the bird on top of the hill and that beautiful sky behind it. Even the way the bird has his head looking back is awesome. Look at those amazing details and that crown. A winner my friend. #11018116
