I was out and about not far from Leeds just driving onto the Bramham Park estate to get some photographs for the Leeds photo daily. I saw this bird a little way off so I stopped the car and grabbed my camera to get a few photos. This picture is the best and shows this male Pheasant bird (Phasianus colchicus) an introduced species.
The pheasant is often heard when walking in the countryside, but this is only the 2nd one I have seen so far this year.
I got some nice photographs of the Bramham Park estate and will do a series of them in a few days.
