Thanks to a lovely person re-checking permission, I was reminded of this piece from 12 years ago. A rather big painting of a male Java peafowl, made for the cover of the "Losing Altitude" artbook, which featured endangered and extinct bird species.
I'm still very fond of the paintings I made for that cover, and I feel they were oddly ahead of my skills at the time (or I just regressed lol).
Especially this peacock, with all his endless feathers and textures and colours. It was hell to paint at the time, but now I can still admire the result. I hope you too will enjoy this blast from the past!

I thought you'd like to know that you gave me some useful info that helped me pass my animal science test! when asked what an example of a phenotype is (genotype + environment, im sure you know), I referenced how in peafowl, they can have the genotype of barred wings, but the sun (the environment) bleaches the bars to a lighter color, thus combining genotype and environment to make a phenotype. thanks, really helped a girl out!
MOST excellent! If your teacher doesn’t believe you tell them to call me.

Recently, the Brazilian version of The Masked Singer eliminated a rather interesting costume. She was called "Pavão" (Peafowl) and her costume was full of green and bright catching colors just like the costumes used in Rio during Carnaval, plus a very well made set of plumage that I'm almost sure you can find videos on YouTube about.
What I was thinking about that costume in particular and the reason why I came to your inbox is to fact check one thing. Is it truth that only male Peafowl that have the tail plumage ? The costume along the person singing in it are female, yet the bright colors indicate it is male, did we have a Trans character eliminated and didn't even knew ?
oh wow, that's an AMAZING getup!
Tumblr media
and yes, while it's true that only the peacocks get that giant feather train, the peahens are not without their own flashes of color:
Tumblr media
though this trend is definitely strongest in java green peafowl.

do with this information what you will!

HIMALAYAN MONAL Lophophorus impejanus ©Ramki Sreenivasan (top)
The Himalayan is the National bird of Nepal, where it is  known as the Danfe, and the state bird of Uttarakhand. These birds show tolerance to snow and have been observed to dig  through snow for roots, tubers and other plant parts, and invertebrates.  Seen in pairs during the breeding season (April to August), they form  large coveys and involve in communal roosting during the winter. The  population of this species in most of its range is threatened due to  poaching and other anthropogenic factors. The male monal has been under  heavy hunting pressure for its crest feather, which was used for  ornament hats of Himachal men, until 1982 when legal hunting was banned  in the state.
The bird from “UP” In the 2009 Disney-Pixar Film “Up,”  the large flightless tropical bird “Kevin” (actually a female in the movie) is based upon a male Himalayan Monal found at the Sacramento Zoo. The bird, named “Genghis,” sadly, has since died.

Hi, here we have another oc, this timewe have got a peahen, but she isn't a normal peafowl : she is a Java green peafowl (Pavo muticus ) the largest, strongest and most badass peafowls' species.
Tumblr media
She need a name, so i will accept every suggestions.
About her life : she was born in a noble family with really caring parents, but she was not the refined lady she look like : she was a whore and a drug addicted. One day her family discovered about her "business" and send her away to a monastery (hopping she would change ). Really angered she became a nun, because she was a noble, the othed nun treated her with respect, letting her do anything she wanted. She started again with the drugs and prostitution but this time she made up a whole army of minions who will do the dirty works for her, so she became the queen of the drugs selling. In the meantime she take over the whole monastery while having a really good reputation, she ended up messing with the authorities and she end up in jail, she barely menaged to escape, she with her minions flee away in another country to start a new life
Fun facts :
She was the one who abused of Felipe in his early life
She is a manipulate psico, able to commit atrocities
She always has a knife with her but prefer to not get her wings dirty
She can fly, but she will do it only for emergency
Her army is composed of crows
She is straight but for a good enough sum of money she won't mind to sleep with everyone
She hate kids
Her long legs make her a good runner like the other fowls

More Pictures of ‘Mr Pritchard’ the visiting Peacock
21 June 2021
A selection of photos from our garden. No one knows where he’s come from, but he seems contented enough in our garden, next door and next door but one.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These Hosta leaves are missing a few chunks now.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He has such a slender neck and small head for the size of bird, but a beautiful face and crown.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He also has a pair of natty ‘shorts’ and some complex feather colourations.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mr Pritchard is an Indian Blue  (Pavo cristatus)  - the most popular of peafowl varieties in the UK. It’s a true species, not a mutation or cross breed and is native to India and the surrounding areas of Java, Myanmar and Malaysia. 
Tumblr media
Poor etiquette when diners sit own on the table!
The Indian Blue Peacock has iridescent blue necks and long tails which grow from February to August, when they moult each year.  The male has iridescent green tail with the classic blue eyes within the tail. The Indian Blue Peahen is brown in colour with metallic green around the neck.  The Indian Blue Peahen has darker plain brown coloured feathers on her body, mottled with white underneath.
from Peacocks UK
I believe that in the wild a good life expectancy for peafowl is around 15 years old and in captivity, they can live to the age of 23. It’s only a guess but I think he looks fairly young. His tail feathers are somewhat on the short side. Whether he’ll stay around long enough for us to watch his progress remains to be seen.
My other blog which covers more topics and which has been running since March 2020 can be found Here.

Here they are Ari’s friends from all over the kingdom and far from Mewni.
The first is a cyclops monster on the top left hand corner her name is Mahsa and she is Ari’s best friend since the time they were young kids. The two are very close and are almost like sisters (more so than Ari is with her own sister) Mahsa isn’t royalty of any sort, so people give her a lot of grief for a princess being friends with a monster like her. She comes from a large family very kind and loving and they love having Ari visit. She has five little brothers and two older sisters.
On the top right is Rococo a Septarian historian and archaeologist.(His name is from the art style in 18th century Europe) Working with Ari to help Mewmen/monster relations. He was once a soldier but eventually wanted more out of his life than fighting and decided to improve on the things Star began and became a consultant to the royal family when Ari took the throne. He’s as smart as he is powerful on the battle field. He’s a polite and respectable individual. I’d say he’s like a more suave version of Toffee, less of a-hole but can be just as sarcastic.
On the bottom left is Prince Fu from a far off desert land come to Mewni for trading and allies. His culture is a mix of Indian and Chinese. He is based on the Java Green Peacock interesting fact about this species of peafowl both the male and female have the bright green colors. He is very energetic and eager to please person due to being raised (cooped up)in a castle his whole life and wants nothing more than to be a great ruler to his people.
And last on the bottom right is Drake a half dragon half Mewman from the Underworld. A rather dark and hot tempered teenager he likes to hang out in places other than the Underworld. Despite his cold facade he is a very nice boy and is a protective big brother to Ari and Mahsa. He can breathe fire, fly, and can withstand high temperatures(one of the reasons he wears a heavy jacket) he also love jokes and riddles and reading is a big deal to him.

Wicker circle chair Placement
It doesn’t matter how big or how small your house is, what matters is how well you have decorated your house. Having a well-furnished small apartment is far better than having a big home which is difficult to maintain. The domain of “well-furnished” is not only limited to fresh-smelling paint and lavish woodwork but also includes modern styled furniture. Today, the market is full of eye-pleasing furniture that includes unique shaped sofas, round couches, solid wood coffee tables and edgy armchairs decorated with royal looking cloth and fine motifs.
But are you someone who loves to sit on a bean bag to do office work or just to relax? Are you someone who looks for modern furniture with a plus point of extra comfort? Then you are in the right place. I’m going to introduce you to a chair that is going to provide you the comfort of a bean bag but will last much longer than it. It is called wicker circle chair.
Wicker chairs or furniture are made up of rattan. Rattan is a naturally renewable palm that grows in the tropical regions of Asia and Australia. In Asia, rattan furniture is very common and is an invaluable part of rural people’s livelihoods, especially in South and Southeast Asia. In Bali and Maldives, you might find rattan furniture in top-notch resorts and hotels. One basic rattan product that is used by people of rural areas, as well as urban areas in Asia, is rattan baskets. Nowadays, Rattan furniture which includes sofas, tables, bookshelves, cupboards and much more is gaining fame across the globe due to its unique look and dazzling appearance. In the United States, rattan and cane furniture have become a lighter option for the heavy furnishings being produced. It is regularly being used indoors and outdoors.
Rattan furniture’s cost varies from being very reasonable to a little expensive, but not as expensive as wooden furniture. Also, rattan wicker furniture comes into multiple variants thus gives you a vast choice to choose from.
The round wicker chair also comes into different sizes and has multiple variants. Let’s look at them.
Papasan Natural Rattan Wicker Rocking Round Chair
Tumblr media
  This papasan swivel chair would instantly enhance the look of your living room. You can place it next to a deep red painted wall or in the favorite corner of your room. You will certainly enjoy its comfort. Please note that it is a single person chair. It combines a sustainable rattan frame with exclusive rattan weaving. It is lightweight enough to be moved easily yet stable and sturdy so as not to tip over easily. The best thing about this chair is that it usually comes with a plain fully tufted huge cushion which adds to its comfort.
Usually, rattan products are perfectly made up of good quality products and are crafted in a very fine manner, but they demand a bit extra care than wooden furniture. If you are interested to buy one, then you can buy it from here at Amazon.

Vintage Wicker Cone Chair
A person always drools over great design, from fashion to furniture. He is always in search of things that provide him comfort yet look fashionable and trendy. Designers usually take their inspiration from ancient, vintage goods and try to create a new product that is a composition of several vintage ideas. One such design is of this wicker chair.
The sitting portion of the chair is handmade from sturdy wicker while the legs are made up of solid wrought iron. The hairpin-shaped legs of this chair give it a modern look. This chair also serves for one person sitting.
This chair is perfect to be placed in front of a chinoiserie painted wall or even outdoor on the terrace. To your choice, you can place this chair in your study room as well, near the window so that you can enjoy reading your favorite books with extra concentration and comfort. You can also make a vintage corner in your house where you can hang some monochrome pictures of family on the wall. Put any vintage instrument like a music player on the table and place this chair alongside the table.
If you own a big home with more surface area in a bathroom, you can place this wicker cone chair in a corner, in front of your bathtub with some towels, scented candles and artificial planters on it to present vintage and organized look. But this is very superficial to say because we don’t own large living spaces like Kylie Jenner and has small or normal sized bathrooms.
To add more style, you can place printed square-shaped cushions or can place a fur cloth on this chair. It is preferred that you place vibrant colored cushions on it to enhance the look of the chair.
Ebony Wicker Egg Chair Placement in small living room
This is just another design of a wicker chair that will catch your eyes. The sitting portion of the chair is of black color and is made up of rattan material weaved in wicker style in a round shape. The back is a little long and is bent backward to give you extra support and comfort. The legs of the chair are made up of wood and extend outwards. The overall appearance of the chair is attractive and elegant.
This chair is perfect to be placed in a pair of two with a wicker table in the center. You can place them in your living room in front of light-colored chiffon/net curtains. The other option for placing this chair is to place it as a single chair in front of a vibrant-colored wall such as yellow, sky blue, turquoise etc. with a wooden floor lamp on the side. You can also place this type of chairs in your office or in waiting areas of beauty salons and nail bars.
If you can’t find the same, you might find a nearly similar variant of it easily in various stores or online.

Peacock Inspired Wicker Chair
The bird peacock also called as peafowl, is of high importance in Asian culture. The Greeks learned of the peacock only after Alexander the Great’s conquest – Aristotle called it a Persian bird. It has beautiful blue-eyed feathers tail which, in Indian culture, symbolizes wealth and prosperity. In decorative art, it symbolizes dignity and beauty. Before the invention of writing pens, peacock feathers were used for writing purposes. In Asian crafts, you will frequently find peacock inspired crafts.
Since rattan wicker furniture has a strong association with Asian countries, you will find peacock inspired variants in it as well. The peacock chair started as a photography prop before becoming a symbol of a movement. The peacock chair has taken its seat in history, supporting not only the backsides of the rich and famous but also playing a key part in the Black Panther movement. The intricate design is one that has made its way in and out of fashion throughout the ages.
To give your home a cultural yet modish look, this natural colored, peacock-inspired wicker chair/sofa is the perfect fit. It is totally made up of rattan material with a seat of wicker weaving and is thus very light weight to move around. The multiple legs of the chair not only give it extra support but also enhances its beauty.
You can place it indoor, in your TV lounge in front of a plain white wall, or near your green house with a green background. To enhance the look, place either one or three differently printed but similar colored cushions on it. Also, if you are not going to use it much for sitting purposes, you can place small artificial planters in the corner of its sitting area for decoration.

You can buy these peacock chairs on etsy or amazon.
1950s Mid Century Modern Wicker Chair
Mid-century style takes us back to a time of renewal as post-war America suburbanized, although its era covers pre-world war II through the 1960s. If you’re looking to add a smidge of the space age to your space, consider starting with basic accent pieces. This two-seater sofa made up of classic wood-colored rattan weaved in wicker style can be right at home in the living room or bedroom next to your clear glass window.
Its kidney bean-shaped seat with curvy armrests and mid-length arch-shaped back gives it a unique royal look. The bottom of this chair is also made up of rattan strands twisted in V-shape to present a modish look.
To make the seat more comfortable, add soft but thin cushions on the seats and thick pillows, embellished with thread tassels, on the back.
Since it is completely made up wicker, it would demand some extra care. I would suggest you not to put it in front of the window where sunlight falls directly. Also make sure, when buying, that the bottom has rubber pads so that the material couldn’t directly get in contact with the floor.
You can buy this mid-century wicker chair from chairish.com. It is listed as $1750 at the moment.
Southport patio egg wicker chair
The Southport patio egg chair is a fun and unique addition to any outdoor or indoor living space. Large circular-shaped with metal legs and visually interesting enough to stand on its own, it can also still fit into a larger arrangement with ease. This wicker egg chair with cushions supports you from every angle, making it the perfect place to curl up with a good book or podcast.
Combined with warm textiles, natural wood, and bright vibrant or plain white walls, the Egg wicker chair can help your room combine farmhouse and shabby-chic styles.

Hanging Wicker Chair
Treat yourself to a time out in a hanging chair. A hanging wicker chair is surely a showstopper and is all you need to spend your leisure time on while reading a book or chilling casually. A hanging wicker chair is usually completely made up of rattan material and is round with no pointed edges. The weaving style is often different which lets you choose your favorite design from a wide range. Due to the variance of craftsmanship going into each chair, every piece has individualism and uniqueness in some of the pattern detailing.
The most common and easily available pattern of a hanging wicker chair is reminiscent of tree branches intersecting each other creating small squares throughout. The borders are curvy, and the core frame is standard to ensure consistency in shape and comfort. The sitting portion of the chair is a little deeper on the inside to give you a cozy cocoon-like feel. It will embrace your body with its nest-like form.
These chairs usually come with big tufted cushions that fit on the seats but if they don’t, then you can place several printed pillows and cushions on it in order to make it comfortable.
A hanging chair for couples
If you are a couple who loves to cuddle on cold cozy evenings, then this iconic double seater hanging wicker chair can be your new favorite place to embrace each other’s presence. It is usually oval and offers enough surface area for two people to sit and relax. The cavernous sitting area of the chair lets you and your partner sink back thus creating a cradling effect.
As found on Alibaba
Another design of a hanging wicker chair is this more basic seat-like design. It is less relaxing than the previous two mentioned but looks very chic when hung anywhere in your house specifically where natural sunlight strikes more. This basic brown colored chair hung with a natural-colored rope gives a boho-chic look.
This is a flower pattern cushion on a couple’s wicker chair. As seen on yoycart
Wicker hanging chair with stand
If you want to buy them mainly for outdoor purposes, then I would suggest the one that is made up of luxurious synthetic rattan fiber. It doesn’t get ruined by rain or sunlight. Woven texture, gentle curves, and organic appeal enhance the modern look of this outdoor swing. Its egg shape makes it an eye-catching addition by the pool or on the lawn. Its all-weather cushion wears a machine-washable cover that’s both water and fade resistant granting lasting comfort. Because it is made up of synthetic rattan, it comes into different colors like black, white, red other than the natural rattan color.

Where to place wicker hanging chair?
They are ideal for outside use and look gorgeous on a deck, patio, hanging with a rope from a branch of a tree. You can also hang them from the ceiling of your TV lounge with a heavy-duty chain to bring the summer swing feeling inside the house.
Except for hanging it with the ceiling, you can buy a wicker hanging chair with stand (either 1 stand or 2 stands) for giving extra stability and adjustable spring kit. The benefit of this stand is that when it’s sunny you can bring your chair to the poolside or garden; if it’s warm but rainy, take it to your porch, and if it’s cold and snowy outside, just bring it in and enjoy your comfy hanging chair in the warmth of your living room or bedroom.
You can also hang single person chairs in a pair of two in your terrace or in your sitting lounge with a rattan made wicker table in the center having a nice vintage table mats on it.
Tumblr media
Round wicker dining chairs placement
Wicker and rattan dining chairs are ideal for a classic country look, bringing back the warmth and elegance of the past, but they also have enough contemporary flair to perfectly fit modern interior designs. And if you get a little bored with their natural look, you can easily give them a color makeover and use them as accent chairs.
I strongly prefer indoor and outdoor vintage setting, so this collection of wicker rattan chairs couldn’t be passed up by me. If you also like wicker furniture, then this set of dining chairs may prove to be a special proposition for you. Classic wicker weave design with arched backs and slightly sloping arms, carefully profiled back thus providing support for the spine and completed with soft, tufted seat cushions of your favorite color is a must-have.
You can place these chairs in a set of six or eight around a simple rectangle-shaped wooden dining table either in the kitchen, TV lounge, terrace or in the backyard of your house.
Event decor with wicker furniture
Celebrating small events like engagement ceremonies, bridal shower or birthday parties at home not only proves to be budget-friendly but also gives you more nostalgic moments. Adding a bit of small elements like flowers or fairly lights can give you a photo-perfect and chic décor.
If you’re searching for a way to bring earthy touches to your engagement décor, you need to look for materials made from natural sources. If you were planning a rustic event, you might lean towards unfinished, oaky woods, but if you’re preparing for a bohemian-inspired affair, all you want is to bookmark rattan goods. For example; these two peacock chairs, placed in front of a rattan room divider with a string of flowers hanging over the divider is a perfect place for you and your better half to exchange the rings at. It is also creating the perfect backdrop for your special day portraits.
Moreover, for creating DIY photobooths on your bridal shower, you can also decorate your hanging wicker chair with multiple strings of artificial flowers that match your dress code and battery-operated fairy lights.
As seen on phillymag: beautiful decor for a wedding by using peacock wicker chair. Nice photo-shoot with wicker furniture.
Where to buy round wicker chair and its cushion?
If you are living in Asia, then you can easily buy these wicker chairs from nearby shops. In some parts of Asian countries, there are big markets which has multiple shops of wicker furniture. They not only have a wide variety of ready-made wicker chairs but also offer you a made-to-order option so that you can get your desired design and shape.
In the USA, you can buy these from order one from Amazon.com because there are not so many shops which offer you your desired design. While in UK, and Europe, you can buy these from your nearby IKEA store but again, they do not offer multiple variants. So, Amazon.com is the best option to buy these chairs at a reasonable price with the assurance of good quality products.

How to take care of rattan made products
Every masterpiece demands some extra care that helps it to last longer than expected. The same is the case with rattan made products. Whether you choose to display your rattan indoors or outdoors, you need to learn a few important caring tips. Here are some methods that you can follow to take care of the product:
Clean the surface regularly. A monthly or even weekly cleaning is the best way to protect your rattan furniture and prevent major damage.
Use your vacuum’s brush attachment on woven panels and furniture crevices. A dry brush with a medium bristle can also be used for cleaning by hand.
Use detergent and a cloth to scrub out stains as soon as they occur. For more serious damage like cracking or splitting of the wood, try boiled linseed oil to put moisture back into the material.
Do NOT drag wicker chairs around whose bottoms are also made up of fiber. Doing so will result in the splitting of fibers.
Use felt pads or rubber stoppers to protect the feet of cane and rattan furniture.
Natural plant fibers require a certain level of humidity. Keep furniture away from areas of severe heat as this can warp or dry out the furniture.
Rattan fibers can fade in strong light. This is a natural process and not necessarily bad. However, if possible, rotate furniture on a regular basis to evenly distribute the fading.
Treat the rattan or cane with boiled linseed oil and raise the humidity level of the space if any splitting occurs due to dryness.

I bought myself a mini bottle of the Pinot Noir as I was ordering my groceries a while back. Just last night as I was shopping again, I looked and saw there were other kinds. They were cheap, so I got one of each, thinking I was only getting the mini bottles. Turns out they were full sized! Quids in! Something else to add to my ever-expanding peacock haul. It's no secret how much I love these birds. It’s pretty much the reason I bought these. I’m not exactly a wine expert. (I’m more of a whiskey girl, myself. But I do love a glass off the grapevine)🍷😋 The labels are so gorgeous and detailed. I love how they have a different coloured peacock for each drink. Though, I sort of wish the Sauvignon Blanc and the Pinot Grigio weren’t both green. I mean, they’re both whites, but there were still other colours that could have been used for one of them. White, purple, in keeping with the peafowl theme? The other labels are in keeping with that. The blue one looks like and Indian Blue, the green one is a Java Green and the red one, to me, has a Phoenix/Lord Shen vibe to it. Maybe it’s different in other countries? 💚❤️💙💚

INDIA PEAFOWL or BLUE PEAFOWL in courtship display Pavo cristatus ©Laura Quick
Peacocks are polygamous, and the breeding season is spread out but appears to be dependent on the rains. Peafowls usually reach sexual maturity at the age of 2 to 3 years old. Several males may congregate at a lek site and these males are often closely related. Males at lek appear to maintain small territories next to each other and they allow females to visit them and make no attempt to guard harems. Females do not appear to favor specific males. The males display in courtship by raising the upper-tail coverts into an arched fan. The wings are held half open and drooped and it periodically vibrates the long feathers producing a ruffling sound. The cock faces the hen initially and struts and prances around and sometimes turns around to display the tail. Males may also freeze over food to invite a female in a form of courtship feeding. Males may display even in the absence of females. When a male is displaying, females do not appear to show any interest and usually continue their foraging. source

#indian_peafowl The peafowl include three species of birds in the genera Pavo and Afropavo of the Phasianidae family, the pheasants and their allies. There are two Asiatic species: the blue or Indian peafowl originally of India, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan; and the green peafowl of Myanmar, Indochina, and Java; and one African species, the Congo peafowl, native only to the Congo Basin. Male peafowl are known for their piercing call and their extravagant plumage. The latter is especially prominent in the Asiatic species, who have an eye-spotted "tail" or "train" of covert feathers which they display as part of a courtship ritual. The term peacock is properly reserved for the male; the female is known as a peahen, and the immature offspring are sometimes called peachicks. #wikipedia (at Kabini Forest, Karnataka.)

Animal Kingdom - Animal Facts Amazing Fun Fact about Peacock – Part 1 Peacock, any of several resplendent birds of the pheasant family.

Two species of peafowl are the blue, or Indian and Sri Lanka, and the green, or Javanese, found from Myanmar (Burma) to Java.
