The Indian peafowl or blue peafowl, a large and brightly coloured bird, is a species of peafowl native to South Asia, but introduced in many other parts of the world.

Peacocks are male peafowl, a type of pheasant that also includes the female peahen. No matter the species of peacock, these colorful creatures boast impressively sized and patterned plumage that they fan out for display purposes. It isn't an act of vanity, though -- peacocks fan out their feathers as part of a courtship ritual to attract a mate.

This impressive pose of the peacock not only attracts attention, but also reveals one of the unique evolutionary strategies in nature. This male peacock, who calls out to potential mates by spreading his colorful feathers as much as possible, participates in the race for survival using the power of visuality. Photography brings together aesthetics and the biological elegance of nature.

It isn't often that you can get a shot of a male peacock in all his glory with a perfect background. This was shot near Avila Beach, California.
