Face Off

Cock PheasantsThese two cock pheasants were having a bit of an argument today. There was no female around, so I am not sure what the disagreement was about. They usually live happily together in the garden until the mating season comes around.

This is possibly one of the greates things I mist of the English countryside - seeing Pheasant in the wild.

One of our neighbours keeps poultry in a cage in woodland close to our boundary and has a couple of Pheasants -but it's not the same.

I hear 'cock up' as it goes to roost which is a comfort.

Where I lived in Hampshire thay were in abundance.

I think someone must breed them around here because there are so many of them.

I love to watch them and the male colouring is so vibrant in the springtime.
