That's different, nice looking bird.

Had one drop in a couple of years ago. I reckon it was hiding from the local farmer.

Re: My garden visitor

Thanks for your comment Pops. He is not as tame as those that visited last year. John.

Guess we know what you're having for supper.

I have never tasted pheasant. I know you have to hang it for a few days for the meat to mature.

My mother-in-law fed it to me after our first son was born. Very nice it was too.

We sometimes get a female coming into the garden, never a male that I can recall. Yours is much more handsome.

Re: My garden visitor

Very bold creatures, probably because they are almost hand-fed when the estates rear them to shoot. Very stupid too, when they are 3/4 of the way across the lane they run back into your path when they see you coming, instead of running to the far side. Our local Squire regularly offers us a brace at this time of the year but we shamefully decline - my days of gutting and skinning went when the angling passion left me.

I think they are a lovely bird to look at - just like yours John.
