That’s also my conclusion too.
We used to breed pheasants on the farm.

SupporterYou had more success than I did.
I saw them at King's Canyon several years ago and spent quite a few minutes trying to get a photo, but they wouldn't stop darting about for long enough to get a shot.

SubscriberYes, they're certainly busy little beggarsand it was only with perseverance that we got a decent shot at all. What was interesting was that there were so many of them. At first I thought there was only a couple darting around in a dry river bed but as I started to 'stalk' them looking for a good shot there was actually a dozen or more, their camouflage is very effective and it's their movement that gives them away.
