peahen

There are more reasons for the Peahens' success this season.

Until three years ago, there was a peahen living with the males.

The tail itself is brown and short as in the peahen.

If this time is going to be different, certainly the Peahens' travel agent does not think so.

"Only because it happened to be one, peahen," he said.

But I have the feeling you're going to tell me, peahen."

The male is called a peacock, the female a peahen.

By displaying themselves in a group, peacocks increase the number of peahens that show up.

Years ago, the church had a peahen, but it was never replaced after it died.

The prince caught the witch and had her executed, but the peahens did not return.

We are better than the peahens at being peacocks.

On hearing that nine peahens bathed in the lake outside, he set out, despite her efforts to have him stay.

And my guess is the peahen normally would.

Worse, the female (the peahen) would, he argues, be conspicuous in those conditions.

They wanted to dress him as a molting peahen.

"There's no need to be cursing, peahen," he said mildly.

"What are you pecking away at now, little peahen?"

According to a rough estimate, there are more than 1,000 peacocks and peahen in the sanctuary.

As peahens keep choosing males with bigger tails, the result is what's called a runaway selection process.

A hermit directed him to a castle, he found the ninth peahen, and they were married at once.

The phrase comes from the plumage of the male peafowl (females are peahens).

"You will take him from me, you silly peahen?

"Did she really call her a peahen?"

"Sit beside me on my carpet, then, and I will tell you about the golden apple and the nine peahens."

The Peahens' flight back to Newark is booked for Sunday morning.
