I took this photo in August at my summer place. I love pheasants because they are lovely birds... but it is very difficult to the photo ...they afraid of people...
Masterpiece of nature...
I watched it every morning ... walking along the fence..
The women pheasants are smaller than men... and their feathers are not as beautiful as men..
a nice visitor!
ReplyDeleteI love him very much
DeleteA very handsome bird.
ReplyDeleteAndrew you are right but the cock is very noisy sometimes I have heard him at 5 a.m. while I was sleeping in the meadow..

ReplyDeletePheasants are not native to Australia, but I believe that imported ones
for zoos etc. have escaped into the wilds. I have only seen them in
zoos and in pictures.
The male is called a "cock" and the female is a "hen" - same terms
as poultry (chooks).
