I think smugness must be some sort of natural defense mechanism -- "yeah, you aren't gonna fuck with me, 'coz you know what'd happen, don't ya?"

I really don't know. They were free-roaming around the zoo, so it was kind of a wild guess on my part. I looked it up and it could be a peacock pheasant (a type of pheasant, not a type of peacock) or a Congo peacock.

I will try to ask next time I am there. I owe it to the nice peafowl who let me take their pictures so nicely.

Did you see the Guira cuckoo in my other post? He looked very intelligent.
