THE PEACOCK

The peacock is a nice-looking bird. He is the king of the birds. It lives in the lonely forest. Peacocks live in flocks. The male bird has a crown on its head. It has a long tail full of blue, green and red feathers. When the bird opens its tail the feathers with star-like marks stand up. The whole circle of feathers looks like an arch. At the sight of clouds, the peacock dances with the tail-feathers up. Men keep the peacock at home. It is a large bird. It cannot fly higher. The peacock kills a snake at sights. It is our national bird.
