LOL! You mean you couldn't run back fast enough girl? ;)

How gorgeous these birds are and a beautiful capture of its colors and patterning.
 
Wow, what a beautiful shot. Always wanted to photograph a Peacock with its tail fanned out but never had the patience. Great job.
 
This is stunning - love the way it fills the frame. Great stuff.
