This fellow was sat in the undergrowth and was happy to pose for a few photographs... However he had other things on his mind as we observed...
This particular spot was a fluttering ground for large white butterflies and when one came in range, it was no more! He was having an afternoon snack... (No picy unfortunately, he was too quick)
Our presence disturbed the butterflies and hence his meal so he gave up and waddled off into the undergrowth never to be seen again...
The nearest thing we have seen to that is a Black Redstart chasing a butterfly in the garden. In that case it was unsuccessful.

Sparrows will give butterflies and moths a run for their money too.
Rivau has rich pickings. When we visited last year there were loads of butterflies but I can't recall seeing a peacock.
