The Sri Lankan peacock is one of the most colourful sights you can encounter in Yala National Park.
Male peacocks are especially spectacular when they display their long, beautifully patterned feathers.
Their bright colours stand out against Yala’s forests and grasslands, making them a favourite subject for
photographers. You may see peacocks walking across the road, feeding in open areas or calling from
the forest. Although they are familiar to many people, seeing one moving freely through a national park
feels completely different. Keep your camera ready because a beautiful feather display can happen
unexpectedly during your Yala safari.
