While enjoying a walk on the Pre Trail, I flushed a pheasant. Leave it to me to usually see the back end of a bird as it exits. This time, the pheasant flew into some tall grass a short distance away. I was able to zoom in on it with my P900 and get to see most if him. They are such pretty birds and I don't get to see many of these colorful subjects.

Interesting fact about the China Pheasant. Of course, they were imported to the US from China. But what is really interesting to me is that the first place to which they were brought was right here in the Eugene/Springfield area. It was a judge from the local area who did so, and his farm was located on Game Farm Road.
