Something is Missing

Missing ... but what is missing ? Look above ....hahaha . This pic i took when i and my husband were returning from school after dropping my son at around 8:00 am . I saw the peacock standing on the log then we stopped and i got down to click pics. It was a awesome decision i think. It's not that i have never seen a peacock. I have seen peacock but very rare , or from very far and at that time i did not have camera . But today everything was in my favour... hahaha ... i thought that the peacock will open its wings i will click that and just leave But i was totally wrong ....Oh my god , the poses it gave were totally amazing . I always thought that when the peacock opens its wings fully that is the only thing that is worth watching , but no i saw so many beautiful styles , i was totally amazed. The next day also it was there but it was walking here and there and after 4 5 days i think it changed its place, because humans invaded the area a bull dozer was lying there.
