Yesterday around sunset, I saw a bird that was around the size of the crows that hang out in our backyard but I noticed it looked awfully red/brown. I thought it might be an odd trick of the sunset light but wasn’t sure. The angle (including sunlight) made it hard to see.
Today this guy just came up and hung out for a bit. He seemed really happy to be on our back patio and didn’t even seem all that startled by me or the cats.
My guess is that he might be from either a place with a lot of people or be perhaps escaped from a farm? Do they have pheasant farms? …pharms. Look, it is hard to resist.
Anyhow, my way with animals combined with my hermit tendencies makes me wonder how long before someone would have claimed I was a witch back in the day.
