Today’s Animal Love is all about the peacock. And I can’t think of a better transition out of gardening/green month and into color month. Is there anything more colorful than a peacock display? The peacock feature is a popular design motif. Historically the feather was a symbol of royalty, Marie Antoinette wore peacock feathers and to swear on a feather, indicated a solemn oath. In some areas of Eastern Europe, the peacock feathers are seen as bad luck and are not allowed to cross the threshold. The eye pattern on the tail feathers gave the peacock, the nickname “the bird of 100 eyes” and led to the belief that the bird was an all-seeing mythical creature. You don’t have to worry about back luck here though – there’s not a real feather in the bunch. -Amy Azzarito
