"The handsomest Pheasant in all Christendon"

On Sunday 7th February, to paraphrase the Venetian ambassador on the assent of Henry VIII to the English throne, I saw what maybe the "The handsomest Pheasant in all Christendon" during the blizzard conditions last weekend (Sunday). It was particularly gratifying to see this virile Male Pheasant fly over (while we can see part of the western part of the building site near the Parkhill hotel grounds, (before another 2 "Empire State Building" style/ "Tower of Babel" vile and hideous recreations completely block our view) Where were the planned bungalows that was in the planning applications?) from Parkhill grounds onto the building site. He's still about and I was very pleased to see him. Sadly, the monstrous artifical edifices completely blocked any further view of him. Also, very gratifying to see a charm of 18 gold, red and fawn spangled Goldfinches, fly in and they took full advantage of the recently replenished bird feeders. This is my highest tally of this species in the garden to date. Also, seen was the now, sadly, rare sighting of 3 Chaffinces (1 male & 2 females) and the now equally rare sighting of a female Greenfinch too. (Library pic of the virile Pheasant from last summer 2020 when he spent much of his time in the now sadly eradicated grassland habitat just "a stone's throw" from the back garden fence).
