Stealing the Show
This was a first for me: a white peacock. The all-white bird was showing off on the grounds of a petting farm.
It was slowly turning around and attracted many a smartphone-toting spectator whom I roughly shouldered aside to take some photos with a proper camera:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 33mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/500s
Olympus Stylus 1s, 33mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/400s
The nearby avian competition was not amused at all, and walked off later to sulk and peck at nearby fowl for no good reason.:
Olympus Stylus 1s, 60mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/250s
Serves it right for being both vain and cantankerous.
Great photos, and nice looking birds!
Amazingly bright!!
The peacock really stealing the show. Our neighbors have a lot of peacocks.
wow! I've never seen a white peacock before, wonderful!!!
It is, isn't it? Even with one broken tail feather.
Spectacular birds with or without colour.
I have seen a white one but I cannot remember where. It was a long long time ago.
Wow, that's incredible. Deserves some rough shouldering of the peons!
Indeed it did. Disclaimer: No permanent damage was inflicted on bystanders.
Gorgeous white peacock. I’ve seen them a few times in my life, but the standard blue are often found around park and greenspace areas in the South.
Wow! Such majesty. Great shot...
Thank you.
I've never seen a white peacock either @ocrdu. It looks most impressive! Bit harsh on the smart phone photographers though! 😂
