 Peacock 5/10/2021 My observations:  1. They not only spread their back feathers when it's raining but sometimes also when it's sunny. 2. Peacocks can fly but not as high and quickly as most other birds 3. They are very aggressive, although they look gentle, so you have to give them their space. 4. Peacock calls are very easy to imitate and 1 out of 3 of my calls were answered by another peacock The true facts: 1.Peacock’s actually use those feather of their’s to attract mates 2.Peacock’s can fly for a very short time, but they still can fly 3.Peacock’s don’t mind people being near them, but if you go too close they scratch you My sightings of this animal:  I saw about 5-11 of them. I observed them for about a couple of hours as they did various things.
