Blood Pheasant

The blood pheasant (Ithaginis cruentus), also known as blood partridge, is the
only species in genus Ithaginis of the pheasant family. It is a relatively
small, short-tailed pheasant that is widespread and is fairly common in
eastern Himalayas, ranging across India, Nepal, Bhutan, China, and northern
Myanmar. Since the trend of the population appears to be slowly decreasing,
the species has been evaluated as of least concern by IUCN in 2009. Blood
pheasants live in the mountains of Nepal, Sikkim, northern My-anmar, Tibet,
and central and south-central China, where they prefer coniferous or mixed
forests and scrub areas near the snowline. They move their range depending on
the seasons, and are found at higher elevations during the summer. With snow
increasing in fall and win-ter, they move to lower elevations. Unlike the
common pheasant, the blood pheasant is monogamous. Breeding season begins at
the end of April when males begin their courtship by displaying in front of
females by flying at each other breast-to-breast, biting wattles, or
performing high leaps with kicks toward the other's bill. Mate choice by
females depends on factors like tail length, length of the ear tufts, and the
presence of black points in the wattle, but neither wattle size or color nor
the brightness of the plumage affect the females' choice.
