Mohan Chutani June 10, 2014 at 9:28 AM Very well written, Pandita. A common sight in North India. Mohan Pandita Sietesantos June 10, 2014 at 1:24 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 June 8, 2014 at 4:52 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 Pandita Sietesantos June 8, 2014 at 9:39 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 June 8, 2014 at 8:13 AM My Native American maternal grandfather would say. "Rain comes, earth drinks, great Spirit showers us today"!!!! He could speak Choctaw but always spoke in English to we grandkids..
