Check out these gorgeous pheasants from around the world:

Habitat: Forested areas and bamboo thickets of southwestern China and northern Burma

The result of crossbreeding different types of pheasants. Not found in nature. Reminds me of peach cobbler.

Habitat: native to the mountainous regions of western China


Habitat: forests of Borneo
When trying to impress a girl, males will strut about slowly, inflating their blue facial wattles while raising and spreading their brilliant tail. Sexy. This species is listed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species due to habitat loss & local hunting. Not Sexy.
Bornean Crested Fireback
Habitat: the tropical rainforest regions of Thailand, Malaya, Sumatra and Borneo

Habitat: The Himalayas, from eastern Afghanistan to western China
Slightly resembling a peacock due to its bright plumage and very long crest, the Himalayan Monal is the national bird of Nepal. This bird gained some recognition when

Habitat: the forests of northern South Asia, from northern India to China

Aptly named the blood pheasant, this relatively small bird is most recognizable due to the male’s distinctive red feathers. This is the only species of the genus Ithaginis. Creepy name but a beautiful bird. True blood fans will like this one.
