Roger great shots! wonderful colours on that bird. How close did you manage to get?? I ask this because I tried getting closer on them (from behind) a few times but the closest I managed was like 90 feet!! waaaay to far even for the 70-300mm + 1.4 Tc! I even tried the " low down against the wind" technique but to no avail ! males seem more nervous than females!
Thx for sharing....I wish I could get this shots since I have no pheasants shots yet!

Nello, I don't do distance real good but it was within rock throwing distance. Thanks for the nice comment.
