The Blackcountry Man

Cock Pheasent, King of my Garden..

I wake up every morning to this cock Pheasant stamping his authority over all other cock Pheasants that my garden is his territory.
This noise starts at around day break and finishes when I come out of the caravan about 07:50am.

Today he had his mate with him but she was not as easy going as he was and refused to let me take a Blip. He on the other hand strutted around for two or three minutes before wandering off.
This one is a last season?s bird and has lasted all the shoots in the area as well as the large amount of Foxes that are around now. So the likelihood of him lasting another few years are good.

Nice to see them around still.
