Was driving down one of the country roads in rural Springfield and was quite surprised and pleased to see this blue peacock just wondering along in the ditch beside the road.

Wow, what a rare opportunity to get a shot like this Debra. Maybe a runaway? The background is perfect for this gorgeous fellow and you captured him so beautifully here. Super shot.

Great shot Debra. One of a kind beautyful bird. Another super compo with the fence. The yellow leaves backing the blue of the peacock is a natural match. Well done
