Despite their name, peacock pheasants are neither peafowl or pheasants, surprisingly, phylogenetic analysis revealed that peacock pheasants are not even classified with pheasants at all, but are in fact more closely related to peafowl after all, peafowl and peacock pheasants along with arguses, crimson-headed partridges, chestnut-necklaced partridges, green-legged partridges, snowcocks, blue quails, king quails, snow mountain quails, malagasy partridges, sand partridges, and see-see partridges are members of the subfamily Pavoninae within the family Gallidae, which also includes the chickens, bamboo partridges, francolins, and spurfowl.
WoW !! First sounds from this bird were almost like a dog barking, I thought then more sounds were so different !!! My question is ARE THE GRAY PEACOCK PHEASANT and GERMAINE'S PEACOCK PHEASANT the same ???
I thought I had seen it all! I’ve never seen or heard of this bird before. What a beauty. God’s beautiful creation
I found a picture of this bird on Pinterest and was sure it had to be photoshopped. Those feathers are incredible!
krásny bažant choval som ho dlho ešte malajsský a palavánský to sú kúsky
