  10. What’s that noise? Peafowl, Pavo cristatus, were introduced here by Lucky Baldwin in the late 1800's. Since then they have thrived, becoming, like sparrows and pigeons, a naturalized species. Only the colorful males of this pheasant related bird species are called peacocks: females are called peahens and the birds as a whole are referred to as peafowl. Not only are they colorful but peafowl keep the Arboretum's snail population to a minimum.
