Mohan Chutani Date: 6/10/2014 9:28:00 AM Very well written, Pandita. A common sight in North India. Mohan Login to Reply Pandita Sietesantos Date: 6/10/2014 1:24:00 PM Mohan, thank you my friend. I can imagine that it is common in India especially since it is the national bird. They are my favorite birds and as a result I collect motifs with peacocks - ornaments, jewellry, etc. Best wishes.

Dr.Ram Mehta Date: 6/8/2014 4:52:00 AM It's a sure of rain, Pandita. We in our language say May-ao, may-ao, May meaning rain and Ao meaning welcome, welcome rain Login to Reply Pandita Sietesantos Date: 6/8/2014 9:39:00 AM Thank you, Dr. Ram for sharing that very interesting bit of information! As I can imagine the monsoon is indeed welcomed after a long dry spell! Robert Lindley Date: 6/8/2014 8:13:00 AM My Native American maternal grandfather would say.
