The peacock at the rear was putting on a full display of his tail feathers. The peacock in front, whose head we can clearly see in silhouette, was just beginning to open his tail feathers. At the time I took the photo there was absolutely no wind - which is an essential condition for such a display. These birds are in the Snowdon Aviary in London Zoo.
