omg that Von!!!!! Oooooooh my, my, my … chuckle … snort … chuckle … Well (settling down) ... he’s gorgeous … whatever he is … amazing detail … amazing red … the truest I’ve ever seen!!!!!!!!! Another beauty!!!!!!

I have NO idea what this bird is but I LOVE what you did here!

Well if you think you’ll have more fun without me I’ll just pack up my toys and go home!
And it’s my birthday so forgive me if I started the party without YOU! (hiccup)
Take me as I am Jan typos and other assorted flaws….it should have been “cherrypecker”.
I’m going back to the party…cheers Jan and I just love this work.

gorgeous

really gorgeous!!

wooooooooooow! he is gorgeous!

It is a type of Pheasant. I’ve seen them in Moss Bank Park but don’t remember its name. There also is a golden Pheasant but I would have to go back some time next week to find out for you? Lovely work!!

Oh my, this is the most amazing bird and capture I’ve ever seen. Instant fave Jan. Excellent work!!!

Hehehe I see, I found plenty of them on the net, but I’ve noticed in your tags you have already got its species.

That’s what it its, a silver pheasant male, gorgeous thing.

cute!

GORGEOUS!!!!!!

Love it, the texture works well in the bg too. Congrats.

This is so good, beautiful bird!!!!!!

Beautiful work Jan, and I enjoyed reading all the comments too!

Wow! What a beauty! Wonderful colours and sharp details ~ excellent work!

Well I have to tell you..I’m not sure what I enjoy more..commenting or listening to you and Von! Ah he’s just mad no one remembered his birthday ..except me! LOL thanks for keeping me entertained!
; ))~

He is just beautiful, and such a wonder picture of him. Cherry Picker or cherrypecker both match right???

Another magnificent work of art, Jan; you are so wonderfully creative; love seeing the world through your mind and lens!

What a beautiful capture and creation. Splendid work.

Yes my dear I am “one of those peoples”.. you’d be very happy with that if you knew what kind of presents I gave!!! LOL I’m glad you ate the whole cake gf! xoxxoxo

You have created a great image from a beautiful animal. Your colors and focus are fantastic as is the exposure. This is great work. Congratulations. Raymond

Beautiful art work.

I haven’t seen this before now. There is something very scary about it… yet the colour is very appealing. Well done :)

This is stunning Jan, beautiful colours, xx

Love that red mask!!! The berries are beautiful – what a beautiful profile of this Pheasant! Did you know that they sound like car engines when taking off? Found that out in the forest a week ago while exploring! xx
