GREAT variation of poses! and striking pictures. You made good use of textures, and included the environmental information.
This is the the kind of post I love to view since I now am a homebody and not likely to travel off the continental US.

An elegant yard guard, Sylvia!
Beautiful pics of a lovely bird👍😊🥳💕
My friend Liz wants to meet your friend Mr. Peacock. She believes their respective colorations would complement each other rather famously.
It seems she's quite smitten....
Glorious birds and great images, Sylvia.

Great set of images!!! Sylvia
These bring back a couple of memories. One of them is when we (myself and 2 young daughters) got kicked out of a concessions area at the Kansas City zoo because my 2 year old decided to chase a peacock. This peacock upended a bunch of tables where people were eating. Food and drinks went flying everywhere! It wasn't like I had no control of her. This all happened in milliseconds but felt like an hour. I was so embarrassed.
The other memory is much simpler but interesting. I was visiting a man in Kans City whom had a bunch of pet peacocks. They roamed the neighbourhood freely just like children. The neighbours did not care They were mowing their yards, washing the cars Chatting with one another and here are these birds roaming the streets and yards and no one paid any attention to them. It was weird.
Fabulous set, Sylvia. The downloads are beautiful. I love that you captured several different perspectives.
