...Shake Your Booty
When mating season comes, the peacock puts on a show to attract the peahen. The peacock raises his long colorful tail feathers into the air and shakes them. The shaking of his tail feathers sounds like leaves rustling in the wind. The peacock faces the peahen, with his rustling tail feathers and follows her around making loud mating calls.
I sat down on the ground. Trying to blend in, I watched in amazement. I stayed for over an hour and took hundreds of exposures! I wanted to capture the male peacock shaking his tail feathers.
