Seems like every time I’ve seen a peacock displaying it’s tail near a peahen, the peahen has not been taking much notice.

We have a local band of turkeys. Come Spring, the males chase the hens, who run.
Last year, towards the end of their season, a band of females were foraging birdseed and corn in our yard. One lone tom strutted about, ignored. Every few steps, he’d raise his tail, fan it and the girls just kept on eating as if he wasn’t even there. Eventually, he folded his tail and wandered off, alone.
Felt sorry for the poor guy, but it was hilarious.
