1) Peacocks are the birds of tropical or sub tropical \nforests/countries only.\n\n2) The male is larger and provided with attractive feathers.\n\n3) They are omnivorous. That is they eat grains as well as insects and lizards.\n\n4) The birds are happiest during mansoon/rainy season. The peacocks (male bird) begin to dance at the time of the onset of rains. They also dance to attract the attention of the females (Pea hens) at the time of meting and nesting.\n\n5) The tail feathers of the male bird (Peacock) are extremely attractive and large. So when, at the time of dancing, they lift them and spread them in a semicircular manner like a Japanese lady with a folding fan, it presents a beautiful sight.\n \n6) In Some countries like India the birds are hunted for their feathers and flesh.\n\n7) The pea hen is drab, unattractive and looks very much like domesticated chicken , but much larger in size.\n\n8) Both of them have a comb on the head like male chicken or rooster.But the Peacock has a larger and attractive one.\n\n9) In India or Hindu scriptures The male is considered to be a carriage or vehicle of The Goddess Saraswati. The goddess of knowledge.\n\n10) The bird can fly but prefers to be on the ground most of the time like other fowls.

try some cardboard cutouts in the shapes of peacock feathers (this makes for a really good base, so that the feathers wont look all saggy)....then wrap them in some type of fabric, a little thicker than normal so that the fabric can withstand the weight of the paint...for the make up try a face mask effect, i have no idea what kind of make up to use...try nothing cheap as the quality is a lower standard.

Ravens and all birds are considered to be messengers. As I speak there are 4 outside picking up the deer corn. Do I consider this a message. No. But last year one came and sat on the top of the gazebo and wouldn't shut up. Very annoying. About an hour later the phone rang. My daughter had just been rushed into the hospital in premature labor. What's really great about the ravens is they have a plan. About 10 or more get together and each has it's own job. One takes one road and the other ones have thier own road to monitor. When one finds food, they call to the next one, which calls to the next one and pretty soon all of them are there eating. Owls on the other hand are considered messengers of death or soon to be dead. So watch those hooters. Oh, and usually if you see an eagle, a raven is not far away. Well, where I live anyway. I just answered this ? yesterday. Now as i sit here typing, there's a Bald Eagle sitting out on the ice in front of our house. And inching closer. The only thing I can figure is, the ravens were here yesterday eating. If he's bringing a messenger... This has never happened before. Maybe I should go out there. Oh...he's walking this way!! For true.

I just tested that theory. I put my two parakeets in a pop tart box and threw a big stone at it. It works!!!!! They are both dead. Now I'm sorry I did it. They were nice birds and I miss them. Especially Jake. He could recite the Gettysburg address.

Some of them are in my garden, others are down by the canal.   Are you short of sparrows?\n\nIt's difficult to count baby sparrows cos they won't sit still but it does seem like there's not quite as many as usual.  I blame the late spring.   The swans have only managed half their usual number of chicks; maybe the sparrows had similar trouble.\n\nThe bluetits are doing OK though (what a bleepin' racket...)
