Freeman and Hare (2015) studied peacock displays.  They found that when male peacocks fan their tail in a mating display, the rustling feathers generate a low-frequency noise called “infrasound” which is pitched so low, humans can’t hear it, but peafowl can. Why, given the male’s peacock’s flashy tail and loud high-frequency hoots, would they also need to communicate with infrasound?
