Red Legged Partridge

We're fortunate to live in a very rural location with our garden backing onto open farmland. These Partridges wander into our garden several times a day to feed. Which enables me to wait patiently under a camouflage cover for them with my camera. I think they're a very pretty little bird and very photogenic with their colourful and interesting plumage. They're very skittish little things though and so patience is the virtue in waiting for them to approach close enough to get a lovely detailed shot like this.
