Have you ever heard a peacock’s call?

Peacock exits after Juno’s refusal. Design by Meredith Eliassen, 2017.
In Greco-Roman mythology the Peacock is identified with Juno who created the Peacock from Argus whose hundred eyes symbolize the vault of heaven and the eyes of the stars.
Aesop tells of when Peacock was hanging out with the Roman goddess Juno. He petitioned her to give him the voice of a nightingale to compliment his handsome attire.
Juno refused.
Peacock persisted though: “Of all the birds, I know I am your favorite.”
To this the goddess wisely responded: “Be content with your lot; one cannot be best in everything.”
