White and Blue Peacock

The Peacock symbolizes many different things in various cultures. In Hinduism the Peacock is the vehicle (or Vahana) of the deity Skanda representing splendor, majesty and vanity. Ancient Christian belief was that the flesh of the peafowl did not decay and so the bird became a symbol of immortality and is represented in many early Christian mosaics and paintings. The list is long for things that the Peacock or it's feathers represent, but one thing can definitely be said to be true; it is certainly a beautiful and awe inspiring creature. The picture below is from a Flickr album and it's an albino peacock mixed with a blue peacock (both from India). It's amazing.
