I ran over one once - it was trying to cross the road and I was hooning along on my XL175. Peacock feathers everywhere! I went back and it was alive but the owner nearly skinned me. Moral of story - Peacocks and bikes don't really mix.

There is no such thing as a female peacock. They are called peahens. Together they are called peafowl.

We used to have peacocks and peahens on the farm where I grew up as a kid. Awesome birds! Quite territorial though... He may have been saying 'get that bike off my patch!'
