A Fine Pair

A friend  came for a visit today and we went to the park. As we passed the bird feeder we spotted two pheasant so pulled over and parked immediately.They were so busy eating birdseed that they didn’t sneak away as they usually do, so we had some time with them before they left. Here is a photo of the pair of them together. It was challenging because when one ‘s head was clear of the leaves, the other one’s head wasn’t visible or one, usually the hen, would hide.  I kept changing my settings because the light was erratic but managed to get what I wanted after alot of useless shots. This was satisfying after more than one unsuccessful attempt in the past. I call that a good day out birding/photographing.
