Aren’t pheasants just beautiful? This one is in the Bear River Bird Refuge near Brigham City, Utah. 99.99% of the time the pheasants out there will run for cover and if they can’t find cover they will fly quickly to some more cover, which makes taking their picture very difficult. This shot was taken from inside my truck when I stopped just fast enough and in the right place to get this impressive shot before he did what?–ran for cover.
