We saw a peacock, a male one, roaming around in our neighborhood when we are doing daily walking.

The male peacocks are recognized by their long feathers of tails, together with their colors to be attractive parts for mates.
GoogleID and Google AI Chatbot suggested that this peacock belongs to Indian peafowl, a native to Indian subcontinent.
It has a scientific name, Pavo cristatus. In addition to Indian peafowl, the fowl has another common name, called as a blue peacock, it is because of its vibrant blue and green plumage. This peacock is the most common and well-known peacock in the world.
