Synopsis
Fast on the feathers of Extraordinary Chickens, Stephen Green-Armytage is back with even more beautiful photographs, this time extolling the glories of the pheasant family. Among pheasants, the peacock with his magnificent fan of iridescent tail feathers is widely celebrated. Less well known but equally fine-feathered are the Long-tailed Mikado, the Satyr Tragopan, the Bornean Crested Fireback, and the Chinese Monal, only a few of the peacock's many exotic cousins. In gorgeous full-color photographs, Green-Armytage captures the stunningly ornate plumage and surprising mix of the bizarre and the beautiful among more than 70 different varieties of pheasants. A brief but informative text offers an introduction to the birds and their habitats, and concise descriptions of the species follow the illustrations. Serious birders will certainly treasure this unique volume, but even the casual bird fancier will be captivated by the complex shapes, patterns, and colors -- from brown, red, yellow, and blue to bronze, purple, emerald, and pure white -- of the beautiful creatures gathered here. Book jacket., The author and photographer who brought Abrams Extraordinary Chickens (now in its fourth printing) is back with another singular and charming book. With gorgeous color photographs and informative text, Stephen Green-Armytage turns his attention to the pheasant family, capturing with his camera pheasants of all sizes, shapes, and colors and illuminating gorgeous feather patterns and other decorative details worthy of French fabric designers. The varieties included range from the noble Ringneck pheasant, so popular with hunters, to the gorgeous Congo peacock. Breeders and enthusiasts will find this volume a treasure they must own; for others it will be a revelation, worth having for the sheer enjoyment of the striking photographs and the amazing birds they portray.
