Peacock eye feathers are a staple material for fly tying because of their natural iridescence and versatility.

The “peacock eye” feather refers to the distinctive eye-shaped pattern found on the tail feathers of male peacocks, known as peacocks. These feathers are very ornamental and play an important role in courtship displays. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns of peacock tail feathers are produced by microscopic structures that reflect and refract light, creating iridescent hues.

The peacock's iridescent feathers, often called "Eyes", are among the most striking features of these birds. The trail feathers are the elongated upper coverts of the tail and make a spectacular fan-shaped display during courtship rituals. Each feather has a central shaft with a set of colored eyespots or “eyespots,” created by microscopic structures that diffuse light. These eyespots are what give the peacock's train its distinctive shimmering appearance. Peacocks use their impressive displays mainly during mating rituals to attract peahens. During the display, the peacock raises its tail, fanning it out in a magnificent display that highlights the vibrant colors and intricate patterns of the feathers. This display not only serves to attract potential mates, but also establishes dominance among competing males. The vibrant hues and intricate patterns of the peacock's feathers have captivated humans for centuries, inspiring art, fashion and design. They are truly one of nature's most amazing creations.
