Peacocking

This photo was taken at the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden. At the zoo, there is a train station. On one side of the train station is a store where you can buy CZBG merchandise; on the other side is a little ice cream shop. In the morning, there is a peacock in front of each place. (I think they've each claimed it as their territory, as they're there quite reliably.)

This is the "Exploration Station" (merchandise store) peacock, the bolder of the two. He has to be accompanied by two human bodyguards, because he is "feisty" and will chase anyone who tries to get too close. However, he loves showing off his feathers. He stood still for quite awhile so that I could photograph him!
