Peacocks are amongst the most exquisite birds on the planet, and for good reason. Their iridescent feathers, fan-shaped tail and bright blue head and neck make them stand out. They are even more beautiful when their bright feathers are on full display while performing their dance ritual. Travel vlogger Isa Khan captured a similar once-in-a-lifetime moment on camera and shared it on Instagram. The video begins with Isa's wife Mariya spotting a peacock sitting on the roadside. Soon after, a peahen walked onto the scene, and the peacock started performing its courtship ritual. The bird then opened its feathers wide and displayed the iridescent tail. Meanwhile, the couple was left amazed by the beautiful moment unfolding before their eyes.
