Peacock

If you’re ever lucky enough to see the beautiful and stunning peacock while it is chirping, you can be surprised that it is one of the loudest birds. Its noise level, at 115 dB, is comparable to that of a leaf blower, chainsaw, or snowmobile, despite not being as loud as some other birds (106-115db). Males are known for their brightly colored plumage and piercing sounds.


Peacocks create these noises for a reason, despite their anger. They will make a brief squawk to signal their presence when they enter their environment. Peacocks have many predators, so if a larger animal approaches their territory, one bird will sound the warning, which will be repeated by others. The birds will take flight towards surrounding trees for better protection after the alert is sounded. Finally, during their mating season, which lasts from early spring to late summer, peacocks make the most noise.
