PHEASANT (m) // PHASIANUS COLCHICUS .
UNMISTAKABLE gamebird as well, and a joy to hear and see. It is estimated 15 million captive-bred birds are released each autumn. Of these, around 7 million are shot duriing the winter months and a significant proportion of those that escape the guns succumb to natural winter starvation. Take a walk or a drive in lowland countryside and you will surely see a pheasant. The species provides most interest in late winter and early spring after shooting has ceased. Once again seen at Elmley Marshes, Sheppey Kent, these ones are safe, from the gun here, and many do learn to feed and breed in the wild.
