This Cock Pheasant is a regular visitor to our garden. But recently he's certainly showing signs that this is mating season and that he has undergone several rounds with other contenders. You can't quite see in this image but it looks as though he's lost a large amount of feathers from the back of his neck and the rest of his colourful plumage is looking somewhat ravaged.
Became a surreal look, forgot the attraction to the earth for the ear, coffee ,graphite, artgraf and glue. thanks for the visit have a nice sunday.

I miss my little pea brain. I talked to her on the phone the other night. Moo said she just stopped rigid and looked up at the phone with her head cocked on one side and then she did a silly dash around the room. I could hear my dad laughing at her in the background. She knows it's me, just doesn't understand how I've managed to fit my fat arse in that tiny phone! :)
Turkey .... Meleagris gallopavo
This lovely red headed turkey cock was trying to impress the hens while I was photographing him.
A turkey's throat and head can change colour according to its levels of stress or excitement.
Turkeys make a gobble, gobble sound to try and attract hen's.
Photographed recently at Avon Valley Nature Reserve, Saltford near Bristol.
Yes it's a mirror image! There was only one cock. If you look carefully - the a tribal-looking face, neck and shoulders have appeared in the pattern of the dust below between the two cocks! Weird when that kind of thing happens.

The cock fighting culture in SE Asia is fascinating. Male dominated obsessions in which houses and life savings are won and lost. Doping and skulduggery is apparently rife, Lance Armstrong may not be running the most sophisticated doping program after all.
About the Breed
The merry and frolicsome Cocker Spaniel, with his big, dreamy eyes and impish personality, is one of the world's best-loved breeds. They were developed as hunting dogs, but Cockers gained their wide popularity as all-around companions. Those big, dark eyes; that sweet expression; those long, lush ears that practically demand to be touched'no wonder the Cocker spent years as America's most popular breed. The Cocker is the AKC's smallest sporting spaniel, standing about 14 to 15 inches. The coat comes in enough colors and patterns to please any taste. The well-balanced body is sturdy and solid, and these quick, durable gundogs move with a smooth, easy gait. Cockers are eager playmates for kids and are easily trained as companions and athletes. They are big enough to be sporty, but compact enough to be portable. A Cocker in full coat rewards extra grooming time by being the prettiest dog on the block. These energetic sporting dogs love playtime and brisk walks.
Outside the famous Cock Hotel/Inn in Stony Stratford, sits an MGA.
The Cock is famous for being one half of the origin of the phrase 'Cock and Bull Story' The Bull Inn just up the road being the other half of the equation. The story goes, a tale was told in one pub, and retold slightly differently in the other.. Hence Cock and Bull.
The Cock is also slightly less famous for being the venue of my wedding 16 years ago. I say less famous, but if I was to forget the date/venue, my wife would make sure I would be famous for the damage she would inflict on me...
With a deafening roar from her cylinder cocks, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Locomotive #3415 begins moving her short mixed train out of the depot at Abilene, Kansas, destined for the small town of Enterprise, some five miles distant. Although the wide open cylinder cocks on a steam locomotive typically create a loud hiss, I cannot say that I could ever describe that noise as a deafening roar until I got to see the 3415. This engine has, by far, the loudest cylinder cocks on the planet. If you're within 50-100 feet, the ripping sound that these valves make has everyone reaching to plug their ears. It is one of the enduring memories that I will carry forward of this big, 150-ton Baldwin Pacific.
