Congrats! Your spotting has been chosen as our PN Fun Fact for today! Fun Fact: Peafowl have been admired and kept in captivity for thousands of years. Originating in India, Sri Lanka, Myanmar and the Congo, this species has been bred in many color variations including the beautiful leucistic one in this spotting. Males are referred to as peacocks; females are called peahens. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153400055890603&set=a.10150595289465603.674700.10150120463815603&type=1&theater
