Lady Amherst's Pheasant

Lady Amherst's pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) is a bird of the order
Galliformes and the family Phasianidae. The genus name is from Ancient Greek
khrusolophos, "with golden crest". The English name and amherstiae
commemorates Sarah Amherst, who was responsible for sending the first specimen
of the bird to London in 1828. Lady Amherst's pheasant is evaluated as Least
Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. The adult male is 100–120
cm (40-48 in.) in length, its tail accounting for 80 cm (31 in) of the total
length. It is unmistakable with its nuchal cape white black, with a red crest.
The long grey tail and rump is red, blue, dark green, white and yellow
plumage. The "cape" can be raised in display. This species is closely related
to the golden pheasant (C. pictus), but has a yellow eye, blue-green bare skin
around it. The bill is horn-coloured and they had blue-gray legs.
