Pheasant (Red Golden)
Red Golden pheasants are known as Ruffed pheasants because the males have a "cape" that they spread around their necks and faces during courtship. Although they can fly in short bursts, they are quite clumsy in flight and spend most of their time on the ground.
Did you know...in China, people think of this bird as a sign of good luck, best fate, and prosperity.
