The Green Peafowl, Pavo muticus is a large member of the Galliformes order that is found in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia.The male Green Peafowl has a tall spike-like crest unlike the fan found in the male Indian Peafowl. Only the male has a "train" with the tail covert feathers having large dark blue and turquoise centered coppery ocelli. The male has light blue facial skin with a yellow crescent near the ear, and bronzy green neck feathers (rather than blue). The female is much duller and lacks the train.The Indian Peafowl has a much louder voice than all but the imperator because of the special apparatus that accentuate volume. The Arakan spicifer has no such apparatus and as such is much quieter. Green Peafowl are noted ventriloquists however and make many low vibrational vocalizations and even piercing whistle-like shrieks in some forms.Green Peafowl are large birds, the largest galliform on earth in terms of overall length and wingspan, though rather lighter-bodied than the Wild Turkey. The male grows up to 3 meters (10 ft) long, including the "train" and weighs up to 5 kg (12 lbs). The female is 1.1 meter (3.5 ft) long and weighs about 1.1 kg (2.4 lbs). It has large wingspan and Green Peafowl is unusual amongst Galliform birds in their capacity for sustained flight. They are documented flying over the ocean to roost on islets off the coast of Java and on islands in large lakes in Yunnan.Some of the islets and islands are more than fifteen miles (24 km) from shore.
