Here are the most amazing peacock facts that reveal the science behind one of nature's most extravagant evolutionary puzzles! Did you know? A peacock's spectacular feathers are not actually blue or green from pigment at all. The colours are created entirely through microscopic structures that bend and reflect light — a phenomenon called structural colouration, the same optical principle that creates the colours of soap bubbles and butterfly wings! 🎨 Colour Created by Physics, Not Pigment hey!! wa...
