You can find the best and most beautiful gifts for peacock lovers here from the selected collection of green peacock gifts in this page. llet us stLt with reading some green peacock facts so that you can know more about these pretty, rare and endangered birds.
Green peacocks are native to Southeast Asia and they live mostly in the wild in the tropical forests. They are mostly found in parts of Thailand and Burma, and once they were even considered as the royal symbols of monarchs in Burma. Many of them also live in the islands of Java in Indonesia and they are also referred as Java Peafowls.
Although they are very much related to the blue peacocks or the Indian peafowls, they exhibit many characteristics that are entirely different from the Indian peafowls. The scientific name for green peafowls is Pavo muticus.

Thank you :)
Loved reading it
Thanks Marsha!
I think green is the most common color! Beautiful. The Buddhists believe that peacocks symbolize cleansing our poisons, because they eat the garbage.
I have seen both blue and white peafowls in zoo, but I don't remember seeing a green one in any zoos that I have visited. As you said, I think I too didn't have much idea about these. It is sad the green birds are endangered, they look really beautiful. Thanks for reading and commenting!
I've never seen green peacocks. It's exciting to read about them and see them. I once had a feather -- received it from someone I guess, but I was so ignorant, I didn't know what I was looking at. That color should have tipped me off. Can't believe the feather didn't get me thinking. (Now I'm also thinking how come someone sold it if Java peacocks are an endangered species.) Thank you so much for this page!
Thanks DerdriuMarriner for reading and commenting! I too really hope these beautiful birds will be saved.
VioletteRose, Each peafowl is stunning in its own way. Green is my favorite color, so I especially appreciate the natural beauty of green peafowl. It is a harsh reality to read that peafowl population has been decreased by 50% in the interim between 1947 and 1991.
Hopefully, spotlighting this species, such as you have done here, will reverse the trend of endangerment.
Thank you so much for pinning this ologsinquito :)
I love the peacock purse. I'm pinning to my peacock board.
