Our Mixed Flock Journey!

Wonderful photos. That rooster crowing is amazing!

Thank you Bob! That was a fun catch! I also have some of Little Roo!

I have decided to go with the names @Ribh suggested for our peacock and hopefully our soon to acquire peahen! @WhoDatChick ~ maybe one day I will have an Elvis and Priscilla!

Language Sanskrit
Peahen ~ Neela ~ Sapphire Blue
Peacock ~ Shyam ~ Dark Blue

I caught some nice pictures of Shyam today! He was in the front yard and for the first time did not run off when I came outside. Hopefully that will continue!

He loves to hang out under our Crab-apple tree in the front yard!

I turned away for a moment and when I turned back I saw that he had his tail fanned out...only to realize that it was the under portion of his beautiful tail feathers...hopefully one day I will catch him in full display!
Preening!

I love how the sunlight brings out his beautiful colors!

A couple of pictures of his train in different lighting!

I really a, enjoying your new present. This is great! There are some real winners in there.

I'm enjoying sharing them!

 

[drstratton]

Thank you! I’m loving it
Can’t wait to get the rest of the floors down!

It's always so rewarding once all of the work is done...sometimes not much fun getting to that point, but worth it!

It's a lot easier when he's not turning tail & running to hide!

I imagine so.

Really wonderful pictures and he is gorgeous.
I am a bit embarrassed to share these low quality pictures but I randomly found the ones I had taken of the peahen with chicks at the place I was staying.
It was raining so the light isn’t great. But look how cute they are with their little crests! I was also surprised that there is quite a variety in colors.

They are so adorable, I love the crests! There's nothing wrong with your pictures! I'm so glad you found & shared these!

So, if I get a peahen & she starts laying...do you want hatching eggs? I think they would complement the road runners perfectly with their
little crests!
