That this brown ball of fur can turn into a beautiful Indian bird? Any guesses? This is a peachick, an offspring of the Indian peafowl or the Indian peacock. This peachick is about a week old!! It was abandoned by its mother and found by the resort owner at Rottikallu.
Rottikallu is about 30kms from Sakleshpur, Karnataka, India. It is a great place to trek, especially if you like climbing mountains to get a bird's eye view of the surroundings.
Hope to photograph this bird again at its colourful best! Natures ways are indeed fascinating - guess the dull brown is the best camouflage to protect it from predators.
