Magnum and Cameo Peacock: Magnum Hackles for Cross-Dressed Flies, written by Paul D. Miller"When fly-tiers and anglers think of peacock, most envision the eyed tail fan feathers of the male Java or India Blue Peafowl. Long plumes adorned with lustrous, iridescent green-gold herl and brilliant blue center eyes, the peacock's tail feathers are some of the most spectacular and beautiful appointed in the bird kingdom... ...My pursuit of quality peacock feathers led me away from mainstream retail sources and directly to peafowl aviaries.

Their plumage is quite different than the aforementioned blue-green variety and offered different fly-tying applications."
