    About this ebook

    I think Pierre is very handsome, dont you? Did you
    know that he is one of the most beautiful birds in the
    world. The colours and patterns in his tail feathers when
    fanned are spectacular to see.
    Pierre is a male peacock, the females do not have the
    long tail feathers like his. Pierres tail has twenty main
    feathers and many hidden feathers which are much
    shorter, to help support his fan shaped tail. He can fl y
    strongly for short distances, but usually chooses not to.
    His ancestors come from the Indian sub-continent. He is
    from the pheasant family and eats seeds, grains and small
    reptiles. He can now be found in many countries of the
    world and Australia is one of them.
    Please join Pierre and his friends in the farmyard and be
    a part of their very busy day as they hunt for the missing
    twin kookaburras.

      Our Abiding Pleasure In Birds
