Once upon a time, there was a cocky and beautiful peacock. Everyday he would boast about how beautiful he was compared to the other birds. "Oh look how divine my tail feathers look today! And how the light just shimmers off my crest! This dreadful colorless place is simply not worthy of a jewel like me!" he announced. A plain brown fowl answered "Your looks are nothing to boast about! When the hunter comes along he will easily see your luminous feathers and shoot you first!". The peacock laughed at the fowl's remark and continued talking about his looks.
The next day the hunter came along, while the brown fowls easily hid among the brush, the peacock stuck out like a sore thumb and was easily seen. The peacock could not escape or hide, and met his inevitable fate.
