Peacocking

[guppiecat]

“How does the bastard, orphan, son of a whore … Go on and on … Grow into more of a phenomenon?”

“Watch this obnoxious, arrogant, loudmouth bother … Be seated at the right hand of the father”

“Washington hires Hamilton right on sight
But Hamilton still wants to fight, not write
Now Hamilton’s skill with a quill is undeniable
But what do we have in common?”

“We’re reliable with the … Ladies!”

“There are so many to deflower”

“Ladies … Looks … Proximity to power”

“Ladies … They delighted and distracted him
Martha Washington named her feral tomcat after him”

“That’s true!”

(Though, to be fair, Alexander Hamilton was not actually a leucistic peacock.)

Sweet juxtaposition of contemporary Broadway lyric with zoo photography.

Oh, bravo. By the time we got to 'reliable with the LADIES' i was dying of delighted anticipation and rewarded for my expectations :)

Yay!

As I was doing it, I was kinda wishing that I took video of that process. I kinda want to make Broadway musical animal videos now.

(In my copious free time.)

LJ wouldn't let me reply to this comment before. Trying again.

I'd like to do a series, but I need to find just the right photos and, these days, I don't take a lot of one animal or animal type, which makes it harder.

I might do a series. It depends largely on inspiration.
