COMMENTS: I saw a pair of Pheasants on a field close to a lake, in a sunny autumn day. The female flew away when it saw me and I couldn`t make a picture. The male run on the ground towards high grass, and before entering the grass I managed to take this picture.
It`s unusual that they react different. Usually they fly in the same direction when they feel danger.

Hi. I like the photo, but I had to hunt for this fellow. I am wondering if you cropped the top down if that would help. :)
