The common Indian or Blue Peacock is famed for its large and colourful plumage.
What if all the colour was removed from the feathers of a peacock, would the display be just as beautiful?
The answer is a resounding yes as these images demonstrate.

They are known as an Albino Peacock, but this is not technically correct. These white peafowls and are a genetic variant of the Indian Blue Peafowl.

Through breeding this genetic mutation is being maintained and white peacocks can be found in parks and zoos the world over.
