Plucky Pheasant.

As I was cleaning my teeth in the bathroom this morning I heard the unmistakable squawk of a Pheasant which sounded unusually loud. I rushed to a front window and there he was walking past our house. I dashed to the cupboard where I keep my camera kit, snatched up a camera - the only one in which I'd forgotten to replace the card! I put a card in it and sped to the front door, the one which talks to you as you operate it - there's no way to silence it instantly. By now the Pheasant was rushing towards the farmer's field but I managed to snatch a couple of shots.

Perhaps I ought to put a longer lens on the camera (and make sure I replace the card) next time I put it away.
