Japanese Pheasants,キジ

It is because autumn migratory birds are coming soon.

I can't stop going out for photographing of wild birds, in spite of the low back pain.

However, migratory birds seem to have not yet come so far today,

On my way home, I was able to see the battling of male Japanese Pheasants.

もうそろそろ秋の渡り鳥が来る頃なので、腰痛ですが野鳥の写真を撮ろうと外に出ずには入れられません。しかし、今日は未だ来ていないようですが、帰り道でキジのバトルを見ることが出来ました。

 It seems not to be a full-fledged struggle.

According to the Wikipedia Japanese description,

Four subspecies due to geographical variation were distributed in Japan, but the crossing between subspecies has progressed by release birds and the difference is becoming obscure.

Japanese green pheasant is the national bird of Japan.

I often see pheasants near my house

Pheasants do not appear easily in places with a beautiful background.

背景が綺麗な所にはなかなかキジが出現しません。
