Silver Pheasant

The silver pheasant is a relatively large pheasant, with males of the largest subspecies 120–125cm long including a tail of up to 75cm, while males of the smallest barely reach 70cm. The male is black and white and the female mainly brown and shorter-tailed. Both sexes have a bare red face and red legs, which separates it from the grey-legged kalij pheasant (Wikipedia, general species account).

It is found in forests, mainly in mountains, of mainland South-east Asia and eastern and southern China. The adult male plumage is reached in the second year (Wikipedia, general species account).
