No, the legendary king of birds in China is the Phoenix

The peacock, also known as Kongjue or Peacock in ancient times, is one of the most valuable rare birds in the world. There are currently only two named peacocks in the world: the Indian peacock (also known as the blue peacock) and the Javanese peacock (also known as the green peacock). Some scholars also classify the white peacock as another type of peacock. In fact, the white peacock is a mutation of the Indian peacock. Therefore, the ancestral home of the white peacock is India and Sri Lanka; as a bird with various colors, the white color of the peacock is not special; nor is it a manifestation of albinism. The habits of peacocks are those of white peacocks; so why are white peacocks rare? It turns out that in the eyes of female peacocks, the monotonous colors of male white peacocks are not as attractive as the colorful blue peacocks and green peacocks.

White Peacock

The white peacock is a vertebrate animal, class Birds, Phasianidae. There are two kinds of peacocks, one lives in South Asia, called the blue peacock, and the other lives in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, my country, and Southeast Asia, called the green peacock. The male green peacock is about 2.3 meters long (of which the tail screen is about 1.5 meters long). The feather colors are extremely gorgeous, ranging from emerald green, bright green, cyan blue, purple brown, often with metallic luster. There is a cluster of upright crown feathers (fan-shaped) on the top of the head, about 11 cm long. The upper tail coverts extend into a tail screen (not to be mistaken for "tail feathers"), with five-color golden and green lines on it, scattered with many nearly circular "eye-shaped spots". The eyespots are composed of six colors from the inside to the outside: purple, blue, green, brown, yellow, and red, and are particularly bright when they are open. The female bird has no tail screen and the feathers are not brightly colored. One female and one male, or one male and several females active. It has a timid temperament and lives along streams and rivers at the foot of mountains or near farmland, foraging for seeds, berries, etc., and sometimes crickets, grasshoppers, small moths and other insects. In spring and summer, one male mates with several females, and the young birds move in flocks; in autumn and winter, the flocks are even larger. It is not good at flying. When encountering an enemy, it can suddenly open its tail and shake its eye spots to intimidate the enemy, or it can quickly escape to the dense forest to hide. For resident birds. In addition to being used for exhibitions, feathers can be used as decorations. Although it causes some harm to crops, due to the scarcity of wild species, it is now listed as a national first-level protected animal. Most of the products on display in domestic parks are artificially bred offspring.
