Peacock Valley

 The place was a huge open ground with trees on both sides. We stood in the middle near a house, prohibited to move any further so as not to scare the peacocks away. There was a small hillock right behind this field, on the other side of which there was a green carpet of trees. The field where the food was given, was completely bare, but on both sides, trees had lined up which served as the home of these beautiful slender birds. We waited for the birds to come out of their homes.
