Peacock Extravagance
I was enjoying a meandering stroll the other day through thee lovely Beacon Hill Park, when I came across a gorgeous peacock in full glory. He was a spectacular sight, and stunningly beautiful... needless to say, I was quite flattered! What magnificent birds-de-plume...

makes me miss beacon hill park, when my brother was young he used to chase them all around the park to hear them 'squawk' haha oh, the good ol' days!

So cool, that mug is killer, and I love your new look lady!
i love Peacock. Just yesterday I was searching for pictures of Peacock. I am stating to believe that there is something in the air that makes people to think about the same thing, even when we are far from each other. Visit My marrakesh and you'll know what I mean.
What a wonderful Peacock Post. That must have taken so much research! Peacocks are such amazing creatures. Reflection such beautiful creation. Inspring. Now I'm going to be dwelling on Peacocks for awhile.
I love that peacock printed canvas.
I have been debating getting a peacock feather tattoo, and might take the plunge now. I think the mixing of blues, golds, and greens are fantastic.
What an absolutely GORGEOUS post in every way. I MUST have that last item. Thank you so much:-)
I love all of your picks, esp the last one. What detail!
These birds are very special indeed.
I adore the mug! I've been seeing peacocks in design on a more frequent basis lately! Love that.

Thank you for the beauty of your blog. The peacocks are inspiring in the study of color and textures, as is all of your site.
What a great post. Between you and maryam its peacock week, k
Also LOVE your new banner. k
So cool. Aren't their colors amazing? Nothing man-made could look as cool. Thanks for sharing (and for visiting my blog!)
I love all your peacock finds! I've always sort-of secretly wished I had a peacock of my very own. They're so beautiful. Makes me want to go to Victoria to check them out wandering around Beacon Hill Park. :)
