Peacock Wants to Mate with Peahen Momma

On a warm June day at the L.A. Arboretum, a peacock is eager to mate with a peahen momma. She declines, but the peacock momentarily picks up one of her peachicks with his beak to draw her attention. Filmed in June 2021.

Did the peacock try to mate a chick for a second at 0:30?!

[@peacocklover27]

No, he picked up the chick momentarily with his beak. He's jealous of the chicks because he wants to mate with the hen (their momma).
