Pheasant Beauty

: Pheasant Beauty; this is the other gorgeous pheasant at the Bloedel Conservatory. I don't know what type it is, it has more colours on its feathers than the yellow Gold pheasant. They seem to stay quite close to each other. I did not realize this pheasant was there on my previous visit, as had only had a glimpse of the Yellow Gold pheasant that time. It's hard to take your eyes away from these beautiful birds.; Created by: Alandrapal.; Tools Used: 20D, 100-400 L IS USM; Created on: 2 August 2006; Image Views: 699; Average Views per Day: 1.1; Image Number: 27820

thanks everyone, Carol, Dud and Golda. Agree about the colours, have never seen a bird with that many different colours, and they are so vivid also.
