    Have you ever seen a peacock feather close up?  You won’t believe how decorative their peacock feathers are. 

    Did you know that a peacocks mating success rate depends on the colours of his ‘eyespots’ on his train and the angel at which they are displayed.

    It’s no wonder that they are a popular choice for weddings.  When a peacock feather is placed under a microscope, the plume looks similar to jewellery as they are known to shimmer iridescently.
