Silvery Grey Backed Pheasant.
2 Answers
We have had a mature male pheasant in the fields behind us for a week or so, he has much lighter/greyish/silver feathers on his back and paler chest feathers than the resident cock pheasant and his mate. There is no fighting between these two birds and he's coming into the garden regularly to eat the spilled seeds from the bird feeders and seems to be used to people.
Is he just a genetic mutation with the light feathers or what, any ideas?
