THE REEVES's PHESANTS ARE RARE IN THE UK.

Due to ongoing habitat loss, and overhunting for food and its tail plumes,
 the Reeves's pheasant is evaluated as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. There are thought to be only around 2000 birds remaining in the wild. 
I went for a walk in the woods today and there were still three Reeves pheasants scratching around in the woods. It's raining now so I'm inside for the rest of the afternoon. I've been making cakes because Tony's friends coming for tea and a chat tomorrow. Have a lovely evening folks.
