Laying down in some grass waiting for a pheasant to come my way paid off.

This is such a good snapshot! The pheasant is beautiful and the angle is perfection!

~Neutron2K Aug 22, 2012

thanks

Its not a snapshot tho

I was laid in the mud for about 20 minutes waiting for it to venture close enough lol.

I hope it was worth 190 faves lol, i'd say it is. I collect and raise live pheasants, but at the moment I only have these breeds: Silver pair, 1 Red Golden rooster, 6 Lady Amherst pheasant chicks. I just started this year, pheasants can make a lot of money if you sell breeds like the: Himalayan Monal, Tragopans, peacock, Argus, and the Eared.

Ah, monsieur le Faisant. The bird of nobles..

_{Beautiful! After all these years i've lived in pheasant country Ive never managed to get one clear, crisp photo of one like this! You truly captured the beauty and elegance of this bird.}

thanks

Its all down to patience, quiet stalking / crawling and finding somthing to hide in/behind

Just persevere. Birds are a pain to work with and usually you come back empty handed. Its the odd trip that pays off that makes it worth while.

~Neutron2K Jun 9, 2009

yeah their hard buggers to work with. you really need to take your time and a low approach (camando crawling) to get near them.
