One of the many that I seem to be feeding!
All too often not given a second glance, but the markings and colour on the females are quite spectacular when you study them. A few years back I carved life size a pair of Pheasants as a retirement gift for a gamekeeper. It took me twice as long to mark and colour the female than the male owing to the detail on the females.
