The White Peacock in full beauty

Living in Sun City Center, Florida has it's perks.  We are so close to so many of the Theme Parks, and major Florida attractions.  

I was going through some pictures today, looking for one a friend had asked me to send her.

While searching my thousands....and I do mean thousands of pictures I came across a couple of a white peacock I took a couple years ago, and thought I would share.
These pictures were taken at Busch Garden in Tampa.  The peacocks wander the park freely, and it's not unusual to see them proudly showing their beautiful plumage. The shot is a bit blurry

On this particular day, the White Peacock was sitting up in a tree, and I snapped what I thought was a pretty good shot.

To my amazement and delight this beautiful bird jumped down from the tree, saw the other peacock and shook himself vigorously and WHAM, up came the tail and WOW.  I couldn't click fast enough.

Getting this shot made my day.

 Every time I look at it, I'm amazed I was able to get this shot.
