Sri Lanka: Peacocks
Peacocks are actually native only to India and Sri Lanka where they are found in abundance in various national parks. I have seen them in every national park in here, mostly solitary, some displaying their incredible tails. These are massive birds, the largest in the pheasant family, their beautiful plumage can be almost 3-4 feet long! It’s an incredible sight to spot one walking or even sitting in the tree, but seeing one in full display of all its colors is just the highlight of wildlife watching.
