Peacock Feather Up Close

The feathers of peacock possess microscopic 'crystal-like structures', which tend to reflect various wavelengths of lights based on their spacing. The tiny crystal-resembling structures are the ones that create the fluorescent colors. The peacocks are symbolic of re-growth and rejuvenation, royalty, respect, honor, and integrity. They are also a symbol of beauty, love, and passion. Peacocks, the male peafowls, are the only ones who have ornamental feathers. It takes three years for peacocks to grow their plumage. A peacock sheds its feathers annually, so there is no need to kill them for their delicate, beautiful feathers.
