Kalij Pheasant

[Debasis Bose]

Was lucky observe this beautiful pheasant early morning in Corbett, dawn had just set in, light was too low.
He also gave a beautiful display by spreading the wings and flapping them just by 30 degree.

Nice sighting. Good eye contact. I guess there is some noise due to the high ISO. Thanks for sharing.

I know that it is very tough to take shot in low light...but you have done it sir...excellent

In Corbett if one stays still, then these birds will come close. I remember shooting them one evening many years ago. Tracking their movements and then waiting for them to make their appearance is a better way of clicking shots of these shy birds. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
