Young Phesants in the Sugarbeet.


Young pheasants just released from the rearing pens, always make me smile.  They seem so skinny and big eyed and don't yet seem at home in their surroundings.


This one was sensible enough to stay close to some good cover, in the sugarbeet field.


He didn't seem to want to run from me.  I was beginning to think that he thought I was his mother !


This was the field next to where the young phesants were.  It was being ploughed and I don't think pheasants are fond enough of crab apples to risk there being no cover available.
