Photo of the Day
Flirty Fowl
An iridescent peacock spreads its tail feathers, called a train, in an impressive display. It is believed that the females—peahens—choose their mates based on the size and color of these feather trains. Your Shot photographer Cristina del Campo Martin photographed this pheasant in Madrid, Spain. This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
