Have you ever seen a peacock in full flight?
I guess I never thought of peacocks flying.
They’re always on the ground, strutting around!
They must have strong wings… and a lot of determination!
We never imagine that it could be so magnificent . . like a phoenix in a fairy tale!!!
Another amazing aspect to the regal peacock.
Did you ever see anything so stunningly beautiful?
This is the first time I saw a flying peacock! Amazing!
Such a beautiful peacock! I never seen like this. I guess my first time. Thanks for posting Barb! God Bless

I didn’t know they could fly either – until quite recently, thus this post!
Beautiful Barb. I didn’t know they looked so magnificent. Thanks for sharing.
No worries!
Very amazing Barb. Just beautiful. I have a friend who bought a peacock for their son for a birthday present and did not know that they could fly. He had his gift for about two minutes before it flew away. Thanks for sharing. Jeanne
Didn’t it come back? I don’t think they can fly very far.
Reblogged this on Animal Lovers' Blog.
Thank you for re-blogging this one!
Wow! Beautiful!!! I’m on a three week break from my courses and am catching up with blogging friends. This is the first post I landed on when I stopped by this site, and what a post! I love peacocks, but I’ve never seen one in flight. Stunning!
I’m so glad you landed on my post Cecelia, and saw the peacock in flight – I also didn’t know until recently that they could fly – how amazing do they look!
Hello Barb.. I am so passionate about my pet I was out talking to her and covered her up with a blanket like a real baby. My dog loves me so much and I love her! Your animal images and your discussion re pets is an inspiration to me and so I have given you the ” Very Inspiring Blogger Award”. It was given to me and I am passing it on to those that inspire me also. Thank you for inspiring me. http://wp.me/p1viVP-Z5
Thank you so much for the Award, and I will do my best to honour it! The fact that my posts are an inspiration to you fills my heart with joy – thank you!
Call me stupid – I didn’t know they could fly! I’ve never seen one fly. Love these pictures.
You are in good company Tilly – not many of us here knew they could fly either – including myself – until quite recently!
They are awesome birds – in flight or on the ground!
i never saw flying peacocks!
Well, you have now!
hi Barb,
I’ve featured one of your shots as a link leading to your blog:

I hope that will help to make you even more famous!
I didn´t even know they could fly, they are such beautiful birds. I have recently seen an albino one, totally white but still beautiful!
I didn’t know they could fly either, until quite recently, they are amazing. Albinos are beautiful too – I’ve seen photos but not seen one in real life.
Unusual sight. Lovely.
Thanks for popping by!
WoW! This is amazing. I never knew they could fly; too busy preening and posing to take flight… but they DO!
Yes, seems there is more to them than just looking pretty!
That’s for sure!
wow, i stalk my peacocks looking for these shots, now i am inspired! c
You gotta be ready when Kupa decides to take off Celi – what a sight!
Wow – that is awesome!! My Mum would love to be able to take pictures like that!!
Hope you’re having a fun day
Your pal Snoopy
Awesome is the perfect word to describe a peacock in flight!
Wow! Absolutely beautiful!
He sure is! Thanks for popping by Brenda!
I always thought they were ground birds. Thanks for the view.
FYI – Passed on an addictive award to you today:

I always thought the same too, till recently!
Thank you for the award – I’m honored!
Like everyone else, I’m astonished. I assumed — if they could fly at all — they’d fly like wild turkeys. (Which is competent but kinda klutzy.)
But they’re stunning! And gorgeous, with those gloriously eyes-on-paisley trailing tails!
I never realized they could fly either – they are stunning!
Breathtaking
They certainly are!
Awesome! I did not realise peacocks could even fly!
Me either! We learn something new every day.
Stunning is the word for it. I knew they could fly from looking at Chinese art, but I didn’t actually imagine it in real life. Now I can. Thanks, Barb.
They look incredible when they fly!
Wow they’re even more gorgeous with those unusual wings! I had no idea they could fly, nor that they had wings of a different color/pattern than their tails. Great post!
They are beautiful when they strut about on the ground with that gorgeous tail, but even more stunning in flight! Thanks RD.
I’ve never thought much about them flying. Your photos are amazing. Wow they are like brilliant colored angels soaring about.
I like your description of them “brilliant colored angels soaring about” . . . kind of comforting.
I’ve seen them up in trees . . . but never in flight. Gorgeous! Thanks, Barb.
I’ve only just learnt myself that they can fly! Amazing, aren’t they?
That is absolutely gorgeous! I never thought of them flying either.
They are even more incredibly beautiful than I thought they were.
Wow – what gorgeous photos. I’ve never seen them leave the ground.
Me either – I learned something new about them today.
Wow … I never saw that before. Astounding!
Thank you!
They are gorgeous – and a new fact learned today!
Beautiful. They almost look like a pheasant when they fly. They are also quite beautiful.
They are beautiful on the ground, but look even more amazing in flight!
