A dancing pea-cock, Udawalawe National Park, Sri Lanka.

View 'en face'.

View from the rear.

Side view.

An admiring pea-hen?
This courtship dance took more than 10 minutes. The pea-cock was turning round slowly and a shivering went through the outstretched fan on and off. The pea-hen was relatively immobile and seemed disinterested on and off.
