Description

In 1963, the Indian peafowl was designated as the country’s national bird. However, the majestic bluebird with its superb plumage was an emblem long before the Indian subcontinent. The Indian peafowl is associated with luxury, grandeur, beauty, wisdom, and vanity. These birds provide joy to everyone who sees them.
