Beautiful! Have you ever stopped to think about just how amazing it is that a bird like this exists?
Aren't they just wonderful, we have wild ones that get around in our village. We don't see the males around much anymore but we had these girls at the front door a few weeks ago, they ended up spending the day here hanging out in my front yard :)
We also have this guy getting around at the moment too, a new addition to the neighborhood. At first we thought it was a baby peahen/peacock... but as it started to get colour, it wasn't quite right. We found out its a Lady Amherst Pheasant (which is not native to Australia), it is believed to be an escape from an Asian household who would have more than likely eaten it! At the moment he has been nicknamed Chook Chook (not by us) and he visits a number of our properties. It will be interesting to see what he ends up doing. I took this photo 10 days ago, he's coloured up a lot more since then. Nearly all his brown feathers have gone now and his tail feathers are starting to grow.
But this is what he'll end up looking like...
I think he's going to be pretty spectacular too!
