I was driving along in a secluded road, when I saw two Pheasants having a fight. So I just happened to have my camera set up and waiting for something. And it was just ready to fire off a photograph or more. They were not moving because I was there, in fact, they wouldn't care. After 5 minutes, it started to rain, and a bit on the heavy and it started to bring hailstones. That made them break up and run to hide.
did you get a photo of the whole bird Bob? be nice to see its full plamage.
ReplyDeleteIt was so close to me, that I couldn't get any more Tony. It is shame.
ReplyDeleteBob was watching two males outside the van earlier, they seem to peck the ground whilst facing each other.
ReplyDeleteLove these Bob. My favourite bird.
ReplyDeleteExcellent portraits Bob...pity about the weather!
ReplyDeleteVery colourful photographs Bob.
ReplyDeleteI suspect it is "that" time of year when males brawl to win the female's favors.
