Fast on the feathers of his highly successful Extraordinary Chickens, Stephen Green-Armytage is back with a fascinating look at the stunningly ornate plumage and surprisingly expressive personalities of more than 70 different types of pheasants—peacocks included! Showcased in glorious full-color photographs are Long- tailed Mikados, Satyr Tragopans, Bornean Crested Firebacks—each looking more exotic than the next. A brief text offers an ideal introduction to the pheasant family and an annotated index of species follows the photos. Serious birders will treasure this unique volume, but anyone familiar with the peacock's magnificent fan of iridescent tail feathers will be amazed and amused by the complex shapes, shadings, and patterns of its many exotic cousins—not to mention the peacocks bred in bronze, purple, green, brown, emerald, and even pure white!
