Did you know?
The peacock, native to the Indian subcontinent, is renowned for its extraordinary tail feathers, which the male (called a cock) raises and fans as an elaborate courtship display. These feathers bear hundreds of iridescent, eye-like markings called ocelli, created by the precise arrangement of microscopic structures that refract light. In Western tradition, the peacock symbolizes pride and vanity; in Eastern cultures, it represents grace, renewal, and immortality. The bird's plumage has captivated humans for millennia, inspiring art, textiles, and ornament across civilizations.
