just to show not all pheasants are bad.. I had this guy pose for me yesterday....
snapped it from my truck window... he was close to the road obviously... actually he was ON it at first.. then strolled off.....

That is wild Kenn !!!! Love the pose showing the back side and great head turn Very sharp Might want some more room at the bottom Feet very close to the edge Would also increase density on the feathers through selective color black and neutral Just a few points Then would do a slight curves adjustment !!! I like it a lot Sure hope you can get one on top of your truck !!!! Neat !!!

Nice that you could have some detail in the white ring! Love the dry grassy habitat.

Nice head turn. You've really captured the environment with the bird well. Agree about more room on the bottom.

Love the irredescent head that is so nicely shown here.
