"Sex inversion in the peafowl". "Revealing and concealing coloration in birds and mammals". In parts of India, the birds can be a nuisance to agriculture as they damage crops. This leads to eggs being a bigger investment, so to females being choosy about the traits that will be passed on to her offspring by males. The peak season in southern India is April to May, January to March in Sri Lanka and June in northern India. Thanks for your continued patience.

Peacock tails, in isolation from the rest of the bird, are rare in British heraldry, but see frequent use in German systems. This idea also suggests that the success of multiple signalling is not only due to the repetitiveness of the signal, but also of multiple receivers of the signal.

Preliminary assessment of the Late Miocene avifauna from Lemudong'o, Kenya. The redundant signal hypothesis explains that whilst each signal that a male projects is about the same quality, the addition of multiple signals enhances the reliability of that mate.

Adeline Loyau and her colleagues responded to Takahashi's study by voicing concern that alternative explanations for these results had been overlooked, and that these might be essential for the understanding of the complexity of mate choice. Food courtship theory [ ] Merle Jacobs' food-courtship theory states that peahens are attracted to peacocks for the resemblance of their eye spots to blue berries.
