In a strange incident, a peacock regularly visits Shri Anantha Padmanabha Subrahmanya Temple at Neermarga Manoor in Karnataka which is located on the outskirts of the city. Upon reaching the temple, the peacock often dances with joy, especially when people are watching it.
The priest of the temple, Rajesh Bhatt, has presented a silver anklet to this peacock which he tied to the bird on the occasion of Navratri. The peacock which has become a centre of attraction in the particular area around the temple, is also one of the reasons why a huge number of devotees pay a visit to the temple.
The peacock, now, leaves everyone mesmerised when it dances with anklets on her legs. Interestingly, it has been dancing in this temple for the last six years. The peacock arrived after a resident kept the three eggs he found in a chicken coop from which three peachicks came out. He, then, entrusted these peacocks to the temple. While two of them went somewhere else, this one stayed in the temple for years and has been dancing. The temple priest has named the peacock Mayura as it is very friendly with him and his family as well.
The peacock not only listens to the instructions given by the priest but also responds. It slowly takes steps whenever the priest calls or makes any gestures. In addition to that, it always comes to Namaskara Mandapa every night which the residents find surprising.
People visiting the temple often interact with the enchanting bird and take selfies with it. On the other hand, the bird also dances whenever there is a camera on or someone is capturing it. Despite being a creature that is expected to be kept away from human beings, this peacock loves being around them, dancing for them, and enjoying with them.
