    The bird pictured is very likely male. Male birds tend to be brightly colored, while females and juveniles are often “dull-colored”, such as brown or grey.

      Thanks to your comment I realized I had never seen a female peacock and after some ddging I’ve learned that they’re called peahens and that they don’t look nearly as majestic as their male counterparts.

    Spotting one of these just went on my bucket list. Beautiful creatures.
